Guest Artist Program
The Guest Artist Program is designed to provide opportunities for artists and non-artists to work together and connect through the process of creating a work of art. The Guest Artist Program is also an opportunity for artists to develop ideas that challenge assumptions about art by emphasizing creativity in daily life.

Selected projects will emphasize new and/or under-served audiences as well as collaborative and/or interdisciplinary approaches. Collaborations might include social service agencies, schools, health workers, government groups, or any other group or entity.

Selected artists will receive a stipend of $1500, a materials budget, and access to studio facilities, equipment and tools, as well as housing and reimbursement for transportation. The projects should have a specific beginning and ending date.

Proposals for the Guest Artist Program will be accepted from any artist living in North America. All proposals must take into consideration the goals of the program.

To apply, please send:

  • A current resume
  • 10 – 20 slides and/or CD of recent work
  • A one-page project description
  • Pertinent supplemental materials
  • 2 – 3 Letters of reference
