Residency at Taos Clay
Taos Clay offers two
full-time residencies to emerging clay artists, BFA or MFA preferred.
Residents are offered a $250 monthly stipend for materials, a
semi-private studio space (to be shared with one other resident), free
firings, and the opportunity to sell their work in the gallery, in
exchange for 16-20 hours of work per week. Each resident will have the
opportunity to present a slide talk about their work to the local
community, and an individual show featuring work produced during the
residency will take place at the end of the year. Currently, resident
artists are required to provide their own housing.
Taos Clay offers a studio resident position and a gallery resident position. The studio resident’s
duties include firing, mixing glaze, mixing clay, maintenance, kiln
repairs, making sure the studio runs smoothly on a day-to-day basis, and
enrolling new studio members. The gallery resident’s duties
include contacting artists, helping plan shows, photographing work,
helping with online sales, marketing, social media, etc. Installing and
taking down shows, talking to customers, and planning fundraisers. Both
residents teach one class as part of their work exchange. Paid
opportunities for teaching may also be available.
Both residency
positions give insight into managing a clay studio and gallery, while
enabling residents to develop a body of work through access to a diverse
range of firing techniques and equipment. Residents must demonstrate a
willingness to work with the local community, and a desire to grow in
your own work. They must bring a high level of professionalism and
competency to the studio that enriches the quality of our programs and
facility.
Taos Clay is currently accepting applications for a Gallery Resident to begin June 1, 2014, and for a Studio Resident to begin August 1, 2014. Applications are due by April 15 for the Gallery residency and June 15 for the studio residency.
