**Residency Unlimited (RU) is excited to announce an open call for the 2025 NYC-Based Artist Residency Program.**

This program is dedicated to supporting NYC-based artists traditionally underrepresented in the arts. RU encourages applications from artists who self-identify as part of underserved communities, including but not limited to BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals.

Artists working in all mediums are welcome, with a special emphasis on interdisciplinary practices such as social practice, conceptual art, institutional critique, and other discursive approaches.

The three-month residency will run from **April 1 – June 30, 2025**, in collaboration with **RU Guest Curator Jesse Bandler Firestone.**

  

**Residency Features**:

* **Stipend**: $3,500
* **Production Support**: $500

* **Project Support**: Assistance with production and project development.
