Open Call for Applications for 2013-2014 Residency Year
The Galveston Artist Residency is pleased to announce an Open Call for applications for the 2013-2014 Residency Year. We will be awarding three residency grants for the time period of September 1, 2013 through August 1, 2014.
GAR is a fully funded residency. Artists in residence will receive a studio, an apartment, a monthly stipend and the use of a bicycle.
The residency is intended as a gift of time for the development of your practice. We are looking for artists who are at a point in their life where they need to focus on their work and will benefit from a period of intense studio time.
GAR is located in Galveston TX, a barrier island about one hour away from Houston, on the east Texas coast. Galveston is an eclectic mixture of tourism and industry with a rich history.
