Residency Dates: Sunday, October 06, 2024 - Saturday, October 26, 2024

Application Deadline: Sunday, May 19, 2024, at 11:59 PM EST


Residency Statement
As a cohort of purpose-led makers, we will discuss the many crossovers and differences between art and design. We will identify how our individual practices exist and work on that spectrum. We will discuss existing projects and projects in the making, to push meaning, connect materials, explore aesthetics and increase impact. We will connect through optional, daily, yoga-based breath and movement exercises as a way to steep our bodies into our making minds. And we will also stay open to the potential of initiating a collaborative project together while onsite at ACA. 

The best candidate for this residency would be either an artist looking to amplify the impact of their work’s purpose or a designer looking to use their purpose centered process to make art. I realize most of you are likely both artist and designer, but that there is a special fuel inside this fluidity that can be tapped into with deeper understanding.

This will be a low key, but very intentional residency. 

There are no prerequisites required.

Application Requirements

Candidates should provide a short bio and CV as well as a letter of interest as to why they are responding to the above residency description. Specifically addressing what they hope to take back to their studio, or how they hope to leave the residency more prepared to move their practice forward.
