Initiated in 2019, the Universal Access Artist Residency is for artists who identify as having a disability. This month-long residency provides funding, studio space, and professional support for an artist to produce a solo exhibition immediately following the residency at Artspace. During the residency the artist works in the gallery where the work will be exhibited.

Residents can actively contribute to Artspace’s artistic and educational programming by participating in First Friday, Raleigh’s monthly art walk; being available for studio visits and tours; and working in their studios during Artspace’s business hours. While this contribution is encouraged, the main goal of this residency is to provide the resident with the space and opportunity to devote themselves to their creative practice.

This opportunity includes:  

-a month to work on a project of their choice 

-24-hour access to a private, rent-free 320 square foot public-facing space 

-a stipend of $2000 (50% paid at the start and 50% at the end of the residency)

-opportunities to interact with the public and the artist community

-community engagements through intentional programming, including speaking and teaching opportunities with our studio artists, meetings and community conversations, artist talks, and critiques

-continued support through consultations with our knowledgeable staff, promotions on our social media channels and website, and a weekly e-news with calls for artists and other listings

-a professionally installed solo exhibition at Artspace 

-a professionally written essay and full color brochure

Studios, galleries and all public areas are wheelchair accessible. If you have an accessibility need, please let us know in the application. Questions? Contact Oami Powers, Programs + Accessibility Coordinator at 919.821.2787 or opowers@artspacenc.org.
