The Island Residency

The IMA issues an annual call for proposals for a six-week residency in the summer on Andrea Zittel’s Indianapolis Island within the IMA’s 100 Acres: The Virginia B. Fairbanks Art and Nature Park. Graduate and undergraduate students and emerging professionals in the fields of art, design, architecture and performing arts are encouraged to apply to customize and reside on Indianapolis Island. A chosen applicant/s will be awarded a stipend to customize the interior of the island and test their proposal during a six week long summer residency. The Indianapolis Island resident will have the opportunity to communicate their unique experience though the use of a blog. Residents will be responsible for the design, customization, and fabrication of the interior of the island.
