Residency: New Orleans

Court 13 Arts Residency Program The Court 13 Arts Residency Program provides artists at all stages of their careers with the opportunity to create experiential work in a specific context and to meet and interact with New Orleans’ artistic community. Residencies are open to emerging and mid-career artists, as well as craftspeople, creatives, and non-artists who display a level of talent, imagination, conceptual creativity, technique and risk-taking. Selected artists will work closely with Court 13 Arts’ staff to set up projects to best use the space and time available. That said, our goal is for artists to be in the position to work without external direction or interference. Our residencies are designed to facilitate a balance between work and social interaction by providing the opportunity for visiting artists to investigate new ideas and share differing viewpoints. By having established artists and non-professional/untrained artists operating in the same space at the same time, cross-project communication will occur. As this is our inaugural residency cycle, we will work on a project-by-project basis to explore opportunities for public programs —workshops, demonstrations, performances, and exhibitions—targeting all ages and backgrounds. We are intrigued by projects that can by design incorporate community outreach possibilities. The Fall Residencies are approximately 2 months, beginning September 24 and culminating in our annual festival/exhibition Always for Pleasure Festival, scheduled November 17-26, 2017 (see FAQ for a detailed description of the festival). In our self-directed residencies, artists are encouraged to utilize in-house tools (wood shop, welders, basic hand tools, paint spray booth) and materials, as well as donated and recycled materials from our external film work. Our facilities are a comprised of approx. 8,000 square feet of raw workshop space, and a 14,000 square foot yard. Projects that can utilize this workspace effectively and that can be exhibited within a festival context will be given priority.

Call: Formerly Incarcerated Artists

RIGHT OF RETURN USA FELLOWSHIP A FELLOWSHIP FOR FORMERLY INCARCERATED ARTISTS – The Soze Agency is proud to announce the first year of the Right of Return USA Fellowship, funded by Open Philanthropy. This fellowship program will invest in formerly incarcerated artists to create original works that can further criminal justice reform in partnership with advocates and organizers. The first cohort will include five artists with diverse backgrounds, who will each receive a $10,000.00 prize, plus $10,000.00 for materials and production. Artists as culture makers have a critical role to play in transforming society into one that is more just, and the push to end mass incarceration is no exception. Artists distill complex issues and emotions, helping us make sense of the world around us. By connecting their audiences to vivid expressions of truth, such as the inhumane conditions of solitary confinement, they inspire us to urgent action. Artists are organizers, connecting people together and building power to reimagine the world. While many artists have explored the issue of mass incarceration, formerly incarcerated artists have an especially important role in exploring this issue. Speaking from their own life stories, these artists powerfully ground their audiences in the experience of incarceration, helping us to break through the wall of ignorance and shame that often disconnects the public from action. As such, they are critical strategic partners in efforts to challenge mass incarceration at all levels. We hope that this fellowship will not only amplify the work of 5 formerly incarcerated artists, but will also help to build a wave of interest in the vision of formerly incarcerated artists for America after mass incarceration. The Right of Return project encourages formerly incarcerated artists of all disciplines who seek to challenge mass incarceration through their creative practice -- including visual, performing, media, design, and other creative professions – to apply for the fellowship. ARTIST RETREAT In addition to receiving financial support for the proposed project, Returning Citizens Fellows will have a group retreat from June 22 - 25th, 2017 ( U.S. based location TBD); participation is a requirement of the fellowship. The central aims of the retreat are to foster relationships, gain perspective on the problems of mass incarceration and innovative solutions, and develop a deeper knowledge of the campaign for purposes of the fellowship. The retreat may include master classes on campaign strategies, criminal justice policy, and/or past and present and history of political art. APPLY HERE DEADLINE: APRIL 21, 2017
