ABOUT our Residency
Guttenberg Arts intimately understands the financial difficulties faced by artists. We seek to support artistic development at our studio with the Space and Time Artist Residency (STAR) program by providing artists with the space and time to create new works in a professionally equipped community setting. Residents work in a variety of mediums including print, ceramics, painting, drawing, and multimedia.
Throughout this 3-month residency, artists receive three studio visits with establish arts professionals. Each artist is required to teach a free workshop or public lecture on their work. At the end of each residency, artists’ works are displayed in a month-long group exhibition.
Artists receive materials stipends through a generous grant from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation. Increasing an artist’s community is the first step toward a sustainable career in the arts. Guttenberg Arts promotes each STAR fellow in print and on the web, as well as through exhibitions and art fairs.
STAR artists are selected by a blind jury of arts professionals on the merits of their work. Guttenberg Arts does not provide housing as part of the STAR program.
