Calling All Aspiring Curators!

Wave Pool offers emerging curators the opportunity to execute an exhibition in our main storefront gallery with mentorship and funding support to assist its success.

Beyond internships at local museums, Cincinnati is overwhelmingly lacking in opportunities for aspiring curators. This program seeks to foster ongoing professional development for individuals with curatorial inclinations, in order to find their voice and gain valuable hands-on experience.

Given the dearth of prospects for aspiring arts organizers locally, the Curatorial Residency Program enables those in need of experience to pursue this kind of professional development.

Each year we select at least two Curatorial Residents.

The 2022 residents will receive:

·      a modest exhibition budget of $2,000

·      a curatorial honoraria of $500

·      mentorship

·      administrative support

·      marketing assistance 

·      gallery space to fulfill bold visions

Forming new creative partnerships and engaging community residents through programming, our Curatorial Residents for 2022 serve Wave Pool’s mission: pairing communities’ knowledge of their needs with artists’ sense of possibility.

The Wave Pool Curatorial Residency Program is decided by an open call and juried process in the Fall for the following year.

The 2023 Curatorial Residency Program is funded by our Wave Pool Pool Party The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts
