Hi!
Looks like you’re interested in our Artists@theBarn residency!

That’s great!

Here’s the good news and the bad news:

We don’t do applications. 

We hate doing them.

We hate evaluating them.

We don’t think they’re a very good method in general.

We’d rather you spent your time making art!

So, how do artists get selected for a residency?

A lot of our artists are nominated by previous artists@theBarn.We also partner with well established groups who nominate artists for the residency. And T4tP nominates a few artists directly each year. 

The best way to get a residency is to work with us, work with an artist who’s done a residency, or work with a company who we are partnered with to nominate artists.

If you’re working with a company that we might be interested in partnering with, have them reach out to us.  

If you have an established artistic mentor who wants to recommend you for a residency, have them reach out to us.

And finally, we’d much rather just get to know you and your work on a personal level.

We like people. We want to help artists. We like to know people or at least have a good recommendation from someone we know or a group that we trust.

Let’s have coffee, come see something we’re doing, or invite us to something you’re doing. 

We look forward to getting to know you and your work!
