ARTSPACE Regional emerging artist residencySince 2000, the Artspace Regional Emerging Artist Residency has provided emerging visual artists with time and space to explore their work in a supportive and thriving open studio environment in our historic building in downtown Raleigh, NC.

Every six months, Artspace selects up to two artists in their early professional careers to participate in the six-month residency. Resident artists receive 24-hour access to a private rent-free studio. The residency includes a one-month solo exhibition at Artspace.

During the residency, artists benefit from opportunities for professional development and collaboration with peers. Residents actively contribute to Artspace's artistic and educational programming by participating in First Friday and being available for studio visits and tours. Residents are also required to give a presentation, artist talk and/or demonstration to the public to coincide with their residency or exhibition.
