Women's Studio Workshop: Art-in-Ed Workspace Residency

Two Deadlines: {ONLINE}

October 15, 2015 [Spring Residency]
March 15, 2016 [Fall Residency]


Art-in-Ed Workspace Residency
Women's Studio Workshop

Rosendale, NY
January through April, 2016



The Art-in-Ed Workspace Residency is a four- to five-week opportunity for artists with teaching experience; knowledge of intaglio, silkscreen, or hand papermaking; and an interest in creating their own work while also working with local school students. Artists can work on their own projects in any of our studio disciplines.

Our Art-in-Education (AIE) program is a model for arts education and operates in conjunction with the Kingston City School District. AIE provides a high quality arts experience by bringing students to a professional artist’s workspace and giving them concentrated time to learn printmaking, papermaking, and book arts.


Spring residency:

During a five-week residency, artists teach in WSW’s studios two days/week for three weeks and visit the students twice in school. In exchange for teaching, residents receive onsite housing and 24/7 studio access during non-AIE sessions. Spring residents work with elementary and/or middle school students.


Fall residency:

During a four-week residency, artists teach in WSW’s studios one day/week for four weeks. Fall residents pay $300 for the full residency, in exchange for onsite housing and 24/7 studio access during non-AIE sessions. Fall residents work with high school students.
