QHHQ Self-Guided Residency

Harpers Ferry, WV, United States

A retreat-style residency in the Quonset Hut Headquarters in Bakerton, WV.

At its most basic, a residency is a place for someone to live and work. What to work ON is determined by the resident.  

The self-guided residency does not require any involvement with the community, any sort of exhibition or output, or even frequent interaction with your hosts.  It is self-catered, and no administrative help is included other than guiding potential residents towards possible funding sources (if needed) and connecting the resident to local resources.

Any specialized equipment needs, administrative help, exhibition or workshop assistance can be arranged for a fee.

Material needs must be provided by resident

Potential for collaboration with local community, exhibition in the Wayside Wondercabinet exhibition space, or other site-specific venues depending upon the project.

Our focus is on identifying and addressing the themes of rural transition—through participatory research with creatives and communities in the exurban environment of the Shenandoah Valley (Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland.) Our approach is simultaneously artist-initiated and community-driven.

Residents can be given production help and space, administrative assistance, networking opportunities, as well as guidance on local customs and issues relating to contemporary rural life. 

Open to all artists, movers, scientists, farmers, historians, musicians, writers, journalists, filmmakers, and others.

Unfortunately, the residency is only pedestrian-accessible.   It can be reached on foot, by wheelchair, or via motorized assistive device.  However, the bathroom and shower are not big enough to accomodate assistive devices.  

Any communication technology that may be needed can be discussed, and staff can be available to read or interpret written word or visual information if needed.

How much of the residency experience can artists with limited mobility participate?

Ideally, we would be able to accommodate all needs for those with limited mobility.  However, that is not possible given the circumstances.  We can spend considerable effort on describing the setting and trouble shooting possibilities for accessibility for those who have limited mobility.

Please briefly describe the facilities and areas of the campus that are NOT accessible.

The live/work studio is situated through a rocky, grassy yard (200 yards) after parking in a gravel driveway.  Once you arrive at the studio, there is a low wooden porch with a small "ramp".  The entry doors to the live/work studio are large glass door which swing out and must be opened and closed by hand.

The bathroom facilities (an outdoor treated rainwater shower and composting toilet) are not accessible via wheelchair.  The shower and toilet can be outfitted with stools, handles, and rails, but the space is confined and cannot accommodate devices larger than a cane.

The kitchenette has countertops which are 3.5" from the floor of the porch, so would be difficult to reach while sitting.

The Sue-Je Lee Gage Sunlit Residency for Social Justice and Human Rights

Ithaca, NY, United States

Sunlit Residency honors the legacy of anthropologist Dr. Sue-Je Lee Gage, pioneering scholar of Amerasians in South Korea, change maker, beloved teacher and mentor whose talents and interests spanned the fine arts, the humanities, and the social sciences. Scholars, artists, writers, and activists are invited to apply for short-term residencies in her Ithaca, NY home to pursue projects related to the passions and interests that motivated Dr. Gage’s work for social justice, human rights, and the arts on a broad scale.

Sunlit Residency offers short-term residencies year-round as well as a fully subsidized competitive summer residency program at Dr. Sue-Je Gage's home, located just outside the Ithaca city limits and the Cornell University campus. Sunlit provides each resident with a private bedroom, fully equipped kitchen, communal, and studio space. Residents will be able to focus on their projects at multiple stages of completion in this comfortable, supportive, and inspiring environment. In addition, Sunlit Residency will provide residents with  library privileges at Ithaca College; they can also access the libraries at Cornell University for a small fee. Residents are also free to pursue opportunities for community engagement during their stay.

Farwell Cottage Residency

Harpers Ferry, WV, United States

Located in the historic town of Hillsboro, Virginia, the Farwell Cottage hosts 1-3 residents in the month of January every year. The focus of this residency is community engagement through various creative opportunities—including workshops, open studios, walks, talks, parades, or friendly waves from the front porch! Opportunities to participate in a Farwell Cottage Residency will be announced by an Open Call when applicable.

Preference is given to LGBTQIA+ artists, but all artists are considered.  Selection is based on whether the proposed work is relevant to the town and its community.   Projects which examine the history of the area (including racial and identity histories,) gardening, agriculture, geography, and community engagement are prioritized.

As a 18th-century building in a confined lot, the home is generally not accessible for artists with disabilities that limit mobility.

Participation as a speaker or panel-member for a salon-type presentation is required (Eat, Drink, and Be Literary Series) and comes with a stipend.  Open studio preferred.  Workshops and collaborations encouraged but not required.

Living space is a 18th century stone house with all amenities.  Depending upon the artist's proposed intention, there are space workspaces within the home and other workspace can be arranged outside of the living space.
 

There is NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION in this area and very minimal conveniences in the town itself, so a vehicle or other ride arrangement is required.

Your Art Residency in Argentina!

La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina

The Residencia Corazón – Artist in Residency (A-I-R) Program was initiated in 2006. Its main objective engenders the creation of a personalized and independent exchange among regional, national and international artists. It allows for mutual enrichment through professional and emotive approaches for new experiences and aesthetic realities. The resident / visiting artists enjoy a dynamic and vibrant time frame for working; they have a studio and living space at their disposal to complete their projects. They also network with and within the local art community, cultural institutions and the public at large.
Residencia Corazón offers a complete international Artist in Residency Program. Each artist, curator or writer receives exclusive and highly-personalized support from the Residencia Corazón team.
Our project is characterized by trying a close, intimate relationship with each resident, proposing that the stay transcends the artistic purpose and that their journey is printed as a learning adventure that they will treasure throughout their lives.

Thanks to the characteristics of our house, artists can combine their stay and production within the same residence in the best conditions. Our house has 3 work spaces. Also due to its large size, many artists choose to work in their private room.Many residents also choose to work in our city because of its particular design (streets, architecture), the diversity of locations (ease of access to buildings and institutions) and the diversity of its environment: (parks, forests, La Plata River with its beaches- riverside jungles, canals, etc.).

Westerly Library & Wilcox Park AIR at The Cottage

Westerly Library & Wilcox Park AIR at The Cottage

Westerly, RI, United States

Westerly, RI is a growing arts community. There are already a number of anchors in Westerly to support the arts including the United, Knickerbocker, the Artists’ Cooperative Gallery of Westerly, the Chorus of Westerly, the Hoxie Gallery at Westerly Library, Colonial Theatre, Granite Theatre, and increasing awareness and appreciation of the arts. 

In the heart of downtown Westerly and part of the arts community, Westerly Library and Wilcox Park believes the Artist-in-Residence (AIR) program further nurtures our arts community through cooperative support and education; it will provide artists an opportunity to work on and share their art, and encourage creativity and artistry in all community members and visitors.

Westerly Library & Wilcox Park's AIR program is designed to encourage the creative, intellectual and personal growth of emerging and established artists. It is expected that artists have sufficient skills and experience to work independently in their studio area. The residency is designed to allow artists to take risks and pursue new projects and ideas, free from everyday pressures. 

The Artist-in-Residence (AIR) also expands Westerly Library and Wilcox Park’s impact on local art and culture, offers public engagement, promotes community connections, and provides creative and educational opportunities for the community while supporting cultural and artistic exchange.

Located in the heart of Barcelona, ​​Printmaking Barcelona has been, since 1986, an artistic studio for artists to develop their works in the field of chalcographic engraving. Using essential techniques such as monotypes, etching, aquatint, mezzotint, carbourundum among others. In recent years, we have introduced other printing or developing techniques such as screen printing, cyanotype, photoetching, linocut...

We offer the artist the possibility of working in a space dedicated to printmaking and arts in general, ​​surrounded by emblematic places of the city.

The main objective of the Printmaking Barcelona Resident Program is for artists (whether new or experts) to feel in a place that inspires them to carry out their work. Surrounded by a unique environment and with professionals with extensive experience who will guide them to achieve the best possible results in their works of art.

In addition to a space equipped with everything you need, we also offer training in the different techniques that we carry out when we opened the studio. It doesn't matter that you don't have experience, the important thing is that you want to learn.
At the end of the residency, we offer the possibility of selling the works through our virtual gallery, as well as publishing the work on our social networks.

The studio has all the necessary machinery and tools to work on engraving and printing techniques.

James Castle House Artist Residency

Boise, ID, United States

Boise City Department of Arts & History invites emerging and mid-career artists in any creative field to apply for a residency at the James Castle House in Boise, Idaho. The historic home site, where American artist James Castle lived and worked for over four decades, stands today as a testament to the artist's unique talent, lifelong practice, and artistic legacy.

This residency invites artists to immerse themselves in the site, explore the house, its history, and the surrounding landscape, and respond to their experience through the creation of new works. Residents will share their creative practice and process with our community through several public in-person and hybrid events throughout their stay, including, but not limited to, workshops, open studios, and presentations. Through this program, the James Castle House keeps the legacy of daily creativity and experimentation alive on-site, cultivating a growing local and national community and providing a deeper understanding of James Castle and the place he called home. 

Located in the vibrant and dynamic Collister neighborhood, it has easy access to Boise’s downtown and the nearby foothills, allowing residents to experience the beauty and culture of Idaho’s capital city while ensuring a quiet and private workspace. Each residency cycle provides one participant with private furnished living quarters, 24-hour studio access, and a stipend to assist with living expenses and supplies necessary to create work.
