EMERGING-ARTISTS-IN-RESIDENCE PROGRAM PILCHUK GLASS SCHOOL

2016 APPLICATIONS ARE DUE JANUARY 6, 2016
2016 RESIDENCY DATES: SEPTEMBER 19–NOVEMBER 11

The EAiR program supports artists who are making a transition in their professional lives. Whether moving from academia to a professional studio practice, taking up a new medium, or beginning a new body of work, artists find this independent residency ideal for contemplation, research, and experimentation. The program provides artists with a place and the time to develop an idea or project in glass, with the potential for realizing a new body of work.

The residency requires a project proposal and supports kilnworking, coldworking, printmaking, and use of mixed media but not hot glassworking. The EAiR program is an independent artist’s residency, so no instruction is available and some glassmaking experience is required.
