Posted by: PlySpace Artist Residency
Deadline: Thu, July 1st, 2021

The Spring 2022 Residency Term Application is now open, with a deadline of July 1, 2021 at 11:59 PM. All applications are submitted through www.plyspace.org/application-guidelines/

PlySpace is an artist-in-residence program in Muncie, Indiana, that is dedicated to offering visual artists, writers, performers, designers, and other creative individuals time and space to investigate and pursue their own practices. Additionally, it serves as a platform for experimentation and provocation by catalyzing conversation and collaboration with various Muncie communities. PlySpace facilitates opportunities for residents to engage with the public through partnership and programming that is tailored to their area of interest. PlySpace is funded in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.

PlySpace is pleased to support practitioners in a variety of creative fields and facilitate access to a wide range of media-specific equipment and facility accommodations. We encourage applications from disciplines including, but not limited, to painting, sculpture, drawing, printmaking, glass, metals, ceramics, performance, photography, video/film, time-based media, writing, poetry, theatre, non-object based practice, and social practice. All residents will have provisional access to the Ball State University College of Fine Art facilities, with 24-hour access to personal studio spaces.

While exploring their personal creative practice, each resident is also expected to work with a community collaborative partner and complete a community-based project while in residence.  This experience is meant to benefit the resident as well as the community of Muncie. The community project proposal is part of the application process, and projects should take up 5-10 hours of time per week in residence, though some residents wish to focus on their community project while in residence. For detailed information about the community collaboration aspect of the program, please see the website (www.plyspace.org).
