Scholarly building: a zine: 'Get to Do An Art or Craft: Applying to artist residencies for 'non-artists''
I just published an 8-page minizine: “Get to Do An Art or Craft: Applying to artist residencies for ‘non-artists’”.
If like me you’re coming from outside the formal Art World, but are a crafter, maker, or artist (or do these but think “I’m not a real artist though…”) You might also not be aware you can apply for artist residencies (aka craft residencies & similar things using terms like sabbaticals, studio & makerspace & keyholder access, awards, fellowships, scholarships) to get time, space, equipment, funding, or other support to make art. Some residencies specifically prioritize under-resourced identities, & ability to give back to a community (e.g. teachers, librarians). This zine is an overview of what’s involved, from my viewpoint as an academic => printer who’s now more comfortable applying for residencies. For more info or to read, download, print the zine (all free!), visit ZineBakery.com/homemade/residencies.
