Wausau, Wisconsin: With a robust roster of diverse programs and a strong history of collaborating with visual artists, the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum announces an open call for proposals to its residency program at the Glass Box Studio, a space developed specifically for studio workshops, programs, and hands-on making. The Museum invites United States based artists at any stage in their career working in any medium to apply and bring their creative energy to north central Wisconsin.  

The Woodson Art Museum Artist Residency Program provides space and time for artists to experiment, explore, and produce individually developed or collaborative artwork in any medium. The Artist Residency Program will increase community engagement and accessibility to the visual arts in north central Wisconsin by providing opportunities for artists to share their creative processes through outreach, workshops, and programming. The program supports artists by providing studio space, living space, honorarium, as well as networking and outreach opportunities.  

“The Glass Box studio is equipped to accommodate artists working in all mediums, and virtually all scales—from miniature to monumental. The Woodson Art Museum staff welcomed me like family and created an environment where I could thrive.” said 2024 resident artist Spencer Tinkham.  

According to Rachel Hausmann-Schall, the Woodson Art Museum’s Artist Residency and Adult Program Manager, “Wausau is incredibly fortunate to have the Glass Box Studio. This new residency program will allow the Woodson Art Museum to continue collaborating with a diverse lineup of artists and bringing quality visual arts programs to our community. All artists who participate in residencies bring something new to share with our audiences, from textile and fiber art to printmaking and stone sculpture, the creativity and artistic experiences afforded by the Glass Box Studio will have a longstanding impact here.” 

 

Learn more and apply by July 15 for consideration for residencies occurring in 2026.
