Artist Studios Residency: Community Engagement

**The ON::View Artist-in-Residency Program provides time, space and community, to support artists in their research, concept and execution of focused creative endeavors.**

  
Located in the heart of Savannah’s Starland District at ARTS Southeast’s flagship project, Sulfur Studios, the ON::VIEW Artist Residency provides a free, high visibility studio space for an artist to complete a focused project, to continue an in-progress endeavor, or to conduct research exploring conceptual, material, performative, and social practices. The studio’s large windows look out onto Bull Street, the district’s main thoroughfare, allowing the artists’ work to be on view to the community at all times. Sulfur Studios’ visitors and passersby on the sidewalk witness the artists’ process as it unfolds in real time, seeing all the steps involved from concept to final execution. Community events like workshops, performances, public art projects and artist talks offer creative ways to interact with the public. The ON::View Residency supports artists working in all media and from across the globe.

  
Just blocks east of the Residency Studio, the 5th Dimension Apartment features a full kitchen, bath and main room to comfortably house the Artist (+1 guest if requested) for the duration of their stay. The 5th Dimension Apartment has a private gated entrance with plenty of space to create, lounge and entertain. It is our hope that by providing lodging for ON::View Artists that we will accommodate a diverse range of creatives from far and wide, as we continue to fulfill our mission to make Savannah a destination for the arts.

Our residencies programme supports professional development, cultural exchange, and artistic experimentation. We host up to twenty residencies each year, bringing artists from all over the world to London. All our residencies are self-led, non-prescriptive and process-based; they are about enabling artists to research and develop new work, engage with the city, and build their networks. 

  
We provide administrative, pastoral, and curatorial support throughout the residency, but we expect residents to be self-motivated, and to lead on the research and production of their own work, during their time with us. 

  
This residency is supported by Bella Kesoyan.

• A materials budget of up to £800\.

Residency open call for artists based in Georgia

The climate crisis is an urgent global concern. **Self as Universe: Mending Our Collective Ecosystem Residencies at A Studio in the Woods** invite artists to explore the connections within our collective ecosystems and use the power of imagination to heal the wounds in the relationship between ourselves and our communities. **Southeast Louisiana’s land and inhabitants are continually scarred by the effects of environmental degradation.** These injuries – the historical to the present – affect our bodies, families, communities, and cultures, as well as the land and its other creatures. We encourage artists to guide our collective response as the caretakers and caregivers to our universe while bringing wisdom, integrity, optimism, and even humor to intentional and timely projects seeking transformation for our species and planet. This new call reflects a desire to repair the disconnection and alienation between humankind and the planet that is hindering the climate movement.

  
We are open to artists of all disciplines who have demonstrated an established dialogue with environmental and cultural issues. We ask artists to describe in detail how our unique region will affect their work, propose a public component to their residency, and suggest ways how they will engage with the local community.

  
**Dates:**

Residencies are 6 weeks and will take place between September 2025 and May 2026\. Flexibility in your dates is appreciated as we try to accommodate everyone’s schedules. You may come over six consecutive weeks or come twice for three-week sessions.

  

* Recipients will be provided $3000 as a stipend and $2000 towards materials.
* We support each residency with a liberatory land orientation, a photography session, and an interview with a videographer.
* We additionally fund optional field trips such as boat rides and eco/history tours.
* Depending on the needs of the project, we may be able to assist artists in accessing Tulane University faculty consultants or research collections.
* We provide full room and board including food, utilities for living, and studio space to selected residents.
* Residents are expected to cover personal living expenses, additional materials and supplies, and any other expenses relating to the cost of producing work incurred while in the program. Travel and shipping expenses to and from A Studio in the Woods for the residency are also the responsibility of the artist.

Self as Universe: Residencies

The Bader + Simon gallery, scheduled to open in 2025 in Cincinnati’s vibrant Over-The-Rhine neighborhood, will showcase the work of emerging, underrepresented artists and the subjects that matter most to them - subjects we all need to be exposed to. Through two gallery spaces, Bader + Simon will present rotating shows with both local artists as well as a range of global artists with 100% of sale going directly to the artist. Through our programming, we strive to be collaborative visual activists working together to educate, enlighten, and create lasting change.

The Bader + Simon Empowerment Grant, founded by the Bader + Simon Board of Directors in 2023, will bring much-needed attention to emerging, underrepresented voices and themes. Art will be used to elicit dialogue, inquiry, and understanding to broaden the impact of our work. Community programming will enhance the theme of the exhibit. 

  
**Grantee Requirements**

* Online presentation and discussion of work to reflect the mission of Bader + Simon.
* Attendance at exhibition opening with an artist talk at the commencement of the event (travel and accommodations will be provided by the gallery).
