How To Find And Get Into Artist Residencies | tips for applications and artist statements etc

[@campjessdesigns]

not a writer but a visual artist and this video got me hyped to take this seriosuly

[@PrinceShakurYoutube]

Yesss! Good luck!!

[@cgarstang]

Thanks for sharing. I've done quite a few residencies over the years and my process has evolved more or less along the lines you suggest. As you say, research to find the places that are a good fit for you is important. Also, as with most things in the writing/art business, remember that rejection is part of the process. One should try not to take it personally and then keep at it. Perseverance is key!

needed this but didn’t know i needed this. never even heard of an artist residency!

[@PrinceShakurYoutube]

Glad this could help!

[@teachermomo2624]

Thanks friend. I’m starting to apply for art residences for my kids art. But I didn’t think about my writing. I’m a writer first, artist second. Keep sharing your knowledge.

[@PrinceShakurYoutube]

Good luck with applying! It can be stressful but important

[@alexzandriathegood]

I appreciate the amount of thought and detail you put into this video. I love how you were able to use an excerpt from your book to unlock so many opportunities.

Hello I got accepted in a artist residency in Greece coming from Egypt but I’m confused between cultural or study visa what type to apply for do you have any clue?

[@MariaJehnnielArt]

Thank you ❤

[@samersamir8819]

Great video and helpful .. Could you help me sharing a link of funded visual art residencies in Europe ? I am confused and and this is what I need exactly. Thanks

[@AmeyaBenare]

thank you

[@PrinceShakurYoutube]

Glad to share

[@TheMilangudzik]

why an artist would need a residency?

[@RCAldrich]

I’ve done a couple of residencies and my work improved from the process. I don’t know why- maybe just being immersed, maybe living in a different place than the usual? Maybe not being distracted by all the stuff that would normally distract me?

[@AngelaKHarrell]

​@RCAldrich Would you mind sharing the residencies you've done? I'm applying to a few (blindly) but it's nice to know where folks have gone and liked the residency.
