The Yearly Artist Residency Open Call at 500 Capp Street, San Francisco

APPLY HERE

500 Capp Street is pleased to announce the yearly open call for an Artist Residency. For the first time, the 2023-2024 Artist Residency at 500 Capp Street will be an open call to international, national and local artists with generous multi-year support from the Sanger Family Foundation.

This  five-month residency program at 500 Capp Street in San Francisco, CA will begin in the Fall of 2023 and end in Spring of 2024 with some flexibility. Suggested start dates of the residency is November or January. Artists will have three months for research and an additional two months for the final project. The focus of this year’s program is to create work highlighting experimentation that expands the boundaries of genre, medium and material. The residency is intended to give creative space for developing and building ideas. The Application process runs from July 10- August 30, 2023. The next resident/s (solo, collaborative or collective)  will be announced in the last week of September 2023.

The selected artist(s) will use The House as their live or work  studio, have access to The Paule Anglim Archive Room and David Ireland Archive (time capsules of Bay Area Conceptual Art from 1975-2009), and consult with curator Lian Ladia on their final project. The project can include research, exhibition, installation, or a public intervention in the house and/or the surrounding neighborhood; or a presentation of their research through a talk or symposium. The artist(s) will be supported throughout the residency and afterward by the staff and resources of The House, extending the impact of the program far beyond the five-month period. There will be a $10,000 travel stipend and honoraria for the individual or collective, and up to a $10,000 production budget.
