Second Shift Studio offers free, year-long studio residencies to four artists who identify as women, gender non-conforming, or are otherwise marginalized as a result of their gender identity. Creatives working in multiple disciplines — including visual arts, writing, performance, and curation — are welcome to apply. Applicants may not be enrolled in any degree program for the duration of the residency period and may not maintain a separate studio during their time at Second Shift.
Resident artists will be awarded one of Second Shift Studio’s four rent-free non-living, 350 square-foot studio spaces for the year of 2025-2027. Resident artists will also have access to Second Shift Studio’s storefront/gallery space, a kitchenette, and a basement storage space.
