NARS Residency Program, Rolling Admission for International Artists Only
Overview
The NARS Foundation Residency Program provides international artists with the opportunity to undertake residencies of three months, six months, or longer. This call is exclusively for artists based outside the United States; US-based artists must apply through separate spring and fall open-call periods. The program is designed to foster creative development and cross-cultural exchange, offering artists time, space, and resources to advance their practice. Residencies are structured around seasonal terms, with a three-month residency generally corresponding to one season and a six-month residency spanning two consecutive seasons. The foundation emphasizes a professional and rigorous application process. Applicants must adhere to guidelines and pay a $35 application fee. Incomplete or non-compliant applications will not be reviewed. While specific amenities are not detailed in the provided information, the NARS Foundation is known for its commitment to supporting artists through residencies that prioritize creative growth and international dialogue. This residency is suited for artists seeking a focused period of production and reflection within a structured, cross-cultural context. The rolling admission allows for ongoing applications, though the deadline for this cycle is January 1, 2031. Artists should prepare a competitive application that demonstrates a clear artistic vision and readiness to engage with an international cohort.
