RESIDENCIES
Experiences Last a Lifetime.
Did you know residencies aren’t only for medical professionals? Artists and students can participate in a residency program (fully funded, partially, or not funded) either domestic or international. There are a variety of programs in all mediums that you can participate in…it’s about choosing the right one for you. We’ve combed through and picked out some residency opportunities below.
*Note: Not all residencies are alike and are highly competitive, but don’t let this stop you! Make sure you read through the criteria carefully to see which program is right for you. Also note, that some residencies have temporarily suspended their programs due to the political climate or business prioritization, but will resume accordingly. Best of luck to all!
