Monira Performance Residency

Jersey City, NJ, United States

The Monira Foundation’s Performance Residency for 2024 will provide space and time to Performing and Movement-based Artists in the New Jersey/New York area at the Monira Foundation Gallery. Beginning from April 15 to September 15, up to six selected artists or collaborative groups will be granted month-long access to a performance space with a portable sprung wood floor. This opportunity allows artists to utilize the space to support their practices.

The Performance Residency for this year offers a $250 stipend for individuals and $400 for groups (lead applicant). Artists will also have access to a safe and private studio space with windows. The Monira Gallery, measuring 45 ft x 60 ft, features concrete floors and a portable wood floor measuring 12 ft x 30 ft. Marley is available for artists interested in covering the floor. There is a sound system in the space, and selected artists can bring their music devices (with adaptors) to connect to the audio equipment. Artists may also feel free to bring there own.

In addition to providing physical space, residents may receive visits from artists and gain visibility through Monira’s social media and communication channels during their residency.

Additional Eligibility Information

Successful applications are open to individual artists or collaborations working in the performance realm, encompassing disciplines such as dance, film, music, theater, and visual art related to movement. This residency emphasizes the artistic process without the expectation of presenting a final piece of work, although artists may choose to do so if it aligns with their process. Housing and transportation are not included in this opportunity.

This opportunity is best suited for New Jersey/New York-based artists who:

  • Explore their interests and questions with thoughtful processes and articulate a context for their work.
  • Are excited about sharing their work through the Monira Foundation and embrace dialogue with audiences as a meaningful part of their process.
  • Are at least 18 years of age and not currently enrolled in an undergraduate degree program.

This residency seeks to serve a diverse and inclusive community, supporting performers of all racial and cultural perspectives and abilities. The selection process involves a panel review with an invited curator, Karole Armitage, Monira staff, and former Resident Artists.

There are no dedicated traditional indoor studio facilities.

We ask that applicants consider how they plan to embrace the outdoors as the primary workspace. 

Workspace is outside in the open air of the garden, on the porch at Poderi Borselli, in the garden of Il Miccio pizzeria pub (on the street leading to the top of the village), on walks, on the village overlook, in the piazzas of neighboring towns, or inside the apartments or house (small works, writing). Even when working inside, the orientation is to the outside through windows and doors that move the gaze to the land, weather, light, and stars. 

Indoor working space at Poderi Borselli is reserved for residents as needed.

If working indoors, all activities must adhere to a strict “leave no trace,” “leave no harm” green policy. Please consider scale and materials.

Artist Residency at Edgewood Farm

Truro, MA, United States

The artist residency program of The Truro Center for the Arts at Edgewood Farm is a program that began in 2017, developed to encourage the development of creative, intellectual and personal growth of emerging and established artists. It works in collaboration with our distinguished educational facility at the Castle Hill Campus, whose mission is to foster the arts for the local and regional community.  The Truro Center for the Arts at Edgewood Farm will focus on the development of “the artistic process”  by providing artists a beautiful place to work for an extended period of time.  The residency program at Edgewood Farm will strive to bring a broader artistic cultural conversation to the local community and economy of the Outer Cape.

The Truro Center for the Arts at Edgewood Farm sits on  nearly 7.5 bucolic acres adjacent to the Cape Cod National Seashore, the Atlantic Ocean and town conservation land.  The residency provides artists an opportunity to be in a quiet and contemplative place, within walking distance to the dunes, natural forests, bike trails, ponds and spectacular beaches that are rated among the top ten most beautiful in the world.  At a time when the natural environment is at risk, Edgewood Farm will offer artists a place to regain a connection to the natural world and draw inspiration from the environment.  

Approximately 3-6 artists a month will have uninterrupted time to work in 4 studios.

ART-14 Residency Program

Patton, PA, United States

The ART-14 Residency, in conjunction with the L.a. Studio community’s art outreach and programming, was founded in 2023 as a haven for artists looking for a comfortable, collaborative, and creative space to explore their art and concentrate on their projects, while our local community simultaneously benefits from the activity at L.a. Studio.

We are located in the renovated St. Mary’s School building (constructed in 1912), which features 12-foot high ceilings and large 7-foot windows, with plenty of natural daylight and spacious workspaces for various artistic disciplines. Artists have 24h access to designated studio spaces including ceramics, stained glass, woodworking, and 3D printing/laser engraving equipment, as well as tons of open studio space for painting, sculpting, writing/composing, research, recording, and whatever else our artists can dream. Residents reside in newly renovated apartments conveniently located above the studios, on the second floor. Private rooms are available with shared access to kitchens, bathrooms, laundry, and a fully equipped gym.

Additional Eligibility Information

Our application is open on a rolling basis, year-round, for residencies of a minimum stay of 2 weeks. Residency and scholarship applications are reviewed systematically by our selection committee and artists are notified within 14 days. If you have not heard from us, please feel free to reach out. Our goal is to accommodate as many artists as possible as will contribute to and benefit from the creative and community-oriented spirit of our program and therefore do not have any major eligibility requirements. 

That being said, we prefer applicants are ages 21+, as one of our team members makes wine and will sometimes share it with our residents. We have no restrictions on nationality and are happy to support all applicants with visa invitation letters, though unfortunately haven’t had a ton of success with our prior letters of support. Of note, due to the historic nature of our facilities, we are not ADA accessible and there are stairs to access the building.

Artists can find more information and apply on our website! (https://www.lastudio.org/art14-residency/residency)

Mentorship Residency Program

Portland, ME, United States

Mentorship Residency Program

The Indigo Arts Alliance studio located in Portland, Maine is the host site for our Mentorship Artists Residency program. This program is the heart of IAA, modeling our values of global community building. Our goal is to bring together artists from diverse backgrounds of the African Diaspora to engage in their creative process, while building lasting relationships rooted in co-mentorship. We believe artists hold the key in creating a better world, and in our work, we allow for Black and Brown voices to lead the way.

The Mentorship Residency Program is a pioneering residency concept that serves as an arts incubator with generous workspace and modern facilities enabling the creative work of visual artists across disciplines. We foster mentorship by pairing two artists together during a residency period to cultivate rich conversation, collaboration, and exchange experiences, knowledge, art industry information and technical skills. The artist-pairing consists of a National or International artist who is traveling to the state of Maine from their respective homes to be in residence with a Local/Regional artist. The goal of the pairing is to build positive relationships that enhance the individual artists as human beings and thought leaders. We want to create healthy relationships for artists of color who are navigating their art practice and create avenues of success that build networks.
