Center for Contemporary Printmaking Artist-in-Residence Program

DEADLINE: April 1, 2024 (ONLINE)


Center for Contemporary Printmaking
Artist-in-Residence Program
Norwalk, CT
Session 4 (Fall):  September – November


The Artist-in-Residence Program (AIR) at the Center for Contemporary Printmaking takes place in the recently remodeled Helen Frankenthaler Printmaking Cottage. Within this space artists have the opportunity to produce a body of work in a supportive atmosphere for creative growth and development—using traditional as well as innovative printmaking techniques. The intention of the residency is to offer artists uninterrupted time and privacy 24/7 in a well-equipped studio with onsite living accommodations. This residency has proven to be an ideal opportunity for experimentation and collaboration. Artists can add to their work practice, explore new mediums, create an edition, or otherwise advance their printmaking skills. CCP strives to advance outcomes from the residency that stimulate original and inventive work that the artist might not otherwise have attempted absent these amenities.

RESIDENCY STRUCTURE & SESSION SCHEDULE
Session 4 (Fall): September – November (Deadline to apply APRIL 1st)
Duration: Artists applying may request a one or two week stay during these periods.

Community Engagement: One of the goals of our residency programs is engaging our local community in an exchange of ideas and techniques. Artists participating in any of CCP’s residencies will have the opportunity to conduct a studio talk or teach a workshop for CCP artists/members and other artists in the Norwalk community and greater New York metropolitan area. CCP will work with the artist to schedule and promote the additional programming through various outreach methods, including social media, to ensure a broad audience.

Edition Expectations: A print or set of prints created during the residency will be retained by CCP to be Sincluded in our print archive as a record of the artist’s time at CCP.
