Open Call for Member Studio Residences  

Member Studio Residency Program

The Member Studio Residency Program offers a unique opportunity for artists to cultivate their practice within Edge Zones’ evolving creative ecosystem. We are transforming a portion of the gallery into three dedicated studio spaces, creating an environment where making, visibility, and community intersect. Beginning this week, we are accepting proposals from artists interested in joining this inaugural cohort. Applicants must first become members; once enrolled, they may apply for a six-month studio residency.

Residency studios are approximately 90 sq ft with 10–12 ft ceilings and are offered at $900 per month, inclusive of utilities (electricity, water, waste), Wi-Fi, and parking. Because these studios remain open and visible during exhibitions, residents gain not only a functional workspace but a unique public presence—each studio operating as a kind of micro-gallery where visitors can encounter works in progress and engage directly with the artist’s process.

We will be accepting proposals until the start of January and look forward to welcoming the first group of residents into these new spaces. This program marks an exciting step forward for Edge Zones, expanding our commitment to supporting artists through access, visibility, and community engagement.
