CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
ARTIST RESIDENCY :
The James Black Gallery is a dedicated live-in and artist work space. We have gallery events every two months, as well as rent out studio space in the down time. The house is from 1889, and was boarded up until 2007 when an artist collective reopened it back up. It is a relatively quiet space except when we host events.
All residents are expected to be welcoming to the general public when the gallery is open as well as take part in projects and meetings to help upkeep the space. Due to the collective quality of the space and investment of time, it is best if we have a longer term resident of six months to a year. We have one month guest residencies here for short term applicants.
Deadline: February 15th
