ArtCenter/South Florida Studio Residency Program Spring 2014

ArtCenter houses 38 partially-subsidized workspaces for visual artists working in most mediums. Studios range from 175 to 900 square feet, with monthly rents averaging $280-600 based on $9.00 per square foot annually, plus common area fees, energy surcharges, and 7% sales tax. Residents have access to a darkroom, print lab, common workspace, Wi-Fi, and 24-hour building access. The residency program offers 6 months to 2 years in residence, participation in monthly Studio Crawls, exhibition opportunities in window spaces, and potential teaching opportunities for artists with previous teaching experience. Residents become part of the ArtCenter Alumni Network and work alongside up to 41 on-site artists including visiting artists.

Eligibility is open to working, professional artists with deep commitment to their practice, based in the US or abroad, and not currently enrolled in academic programs. Alumni artists may apply but priority is given to those without previous studio residency at ArtCenter. Selection is based on merit of past work, readiness to engage with the program, and potential to develop innovative creative practice and community impact. Applications are reviewed by ArtCenter staff for completion and eligibility, then evaluated by a 5-member Artist Review Committee. Finalists are invited for 30-minute interviews (in-person, phone, or videoconference) to determine final selections.

Applications require contact information, artist statement, CV or resume, three professional references, and 8-10 images of recent work (or video/audio documentation by request). Entry fee is $40. Application deadline: 5/31/14 at 11:59 p.m. MDT. For questions about alternative media formats, contact (305) 674-8278 or [email protected].
