Residency opportunities @ Red Lodge Clay Center
In order to suit the needs of a variety of artists and maintain an
atmosphere of momentum and diversity, the Red Lodge Clay Center offers
two residency options. Year-long residencies run from September 1st
through August 15th. Short-term, proposal based residencies ranging from
one to eight weeks, are considered from September 1st through May 31st.
Please submit separate applications if applying for both residency
options.
The year-long residency is ideal for committed individuals in
transition from post baccalaureate studies to graduate school, as well
as those pursuing the development of professional artistic careers.
Self-directed ceramic artists searching for the time, space and
resources needed to explore new ideas and create new work will enjoy the
rural mountainous setting. Accepted residents will be provided with
studio space, housing, utilities, and a monthly stipend in exchange for
twenty hours of work per week at the Clay Center. Responsibilities will
include assisting in the retail operation of the gallery, teaching
community clay classes, as well as cleaning and maintenance of the
studio and gallery. Residents will be responsible for personal living
expenses, as well as all material and firing expenses. The application deadline is February 1st.
The short-term residency is ideal for the ceramic artist who is
working to complete a special project requiring one to eight weeks’
time. Accepted short-term residents are provided with studio space and
24 hour access to the studio. Fully furnished apartments are available
for $450.00 per month or a prorated basis congruent with the scheduled
residency. Short-term residents will be responsible for personal living
expenses, as well as all material and firing expenses. The application deadline is July 13, 2012 for residency proposals occurring between September 1st through May 31st.
The Red Lodge Clay Center welcomes applications from ceramic
artists who will thrive working as a team, in a community minded
atmosphere.

Two opportunities at Lillstreet Art Centre in Chicago
First up: A Residency Opportunity
Lillstreet’s resident artist program was established to benefit the Lillstreet student community, as well as the Artist-in-Residence. The residents in each of our departments dedicate time to work with students outside of classes in order to enrich Lillstreet students’ experience by seeing and learning from a working artist in their midst.
The Artist-in-Residence Program also serves as a resource for our teachers by asking the Artist-in-Residence to assist from time to time with classes and demonstrations. This program is meant to help bolster the vitality of the student community and create relationships with the students. The main focus of this residency is for the artist to be an encouragement and resource for the Lillstreet student community as well as provide an opportunity for artists to develop their work.

Reminder – Medalta deadline this weekend
“Our deadline to receive applications for our summer and long-term residencies is April 15th.
We are expecting a lot of applications this year, and word is they are coming from several different continents, but the good news is that there are now more opportunities as well. We are offering three one-month residencies this summer, in June, July and August.
One month may not seem like much time to get stuff done, but the energy level in the studio is extremely high and resident artists balance all of their hard work with potlucks, field trips, impromptu collaborations, and maybe even a cold beverage on occasion. Our eight year-long artists will show you the ropes as they prepare for their final exhibitions this summer.
In addition to our short-term residencies we are also taking applications for 6 full-year residents. Imagine, a full year in our studios to pursue your studio practice!
All of this takes place among the beehive kilns, a restored 1912 stoneware factory, a museum, decommissioned factories, and a brand new 12,000 sq. ft. ceramic studio.
And all this takes place in Canada!
Sounds good Eh?!
Here’s all our Application Info. See you soon!”
