What is a Centrum Artist Residency?

Shericohenresidency_3 Established in 1980, Centrum's artist residency program aims to create an environment where ideas, music, writing, art and more can be developed, and eventually disseminated.

Centrum residencies are about time and space. With both, you’ll have the opportunity to grow as an artist or creative thinker.

Our residencies are open to artists, thinkers, activists, performers —anyone involved in creative endeavors. A residency may involve either the solitary creative work of an individual or the interactive work of a group. It can focus on a single genre or be multidisciplinary. A residency may involve active engagement with other Centrum programs, artists, and communities, or it may serve as a reflective retreat.

Residencies are awarded on a space-available basis, in week-long blocks (Friday-Friday). Residencies are available as space exists in Centrum facilities--generally January through June, and August through December. Some resources are available year-round.
