Job description

Since 2001, the Lanesboro Artist Residency Program has welcomed emerging artists of all disciplines to live, work and create in the rural context of the greater Lanesboro community. Supported through 2022 by the Jerome Foundation, the Lanesboro Artist Residency Program awards two to three residencies per year to emerging artists with projects that activate the people & places of Lanesboro while instigating positive change. The program’s place-based and community-engaged focus is geared toward emerging artists that are driven to explore ways in which their work can be applied to the community and how Lanesboro’s rural community can inform their work. Artist Residents utilize a dynamic and compelling array of community assets as a catalytic vehicle for engagement and artistic experimentation, while benefiting from dedicated live/work space and ample time to create.

The application deadline for the 2022 Lanesboro Artist Residency Program is Friday, July 30, 2021 at 12 p.m. (noon) CST.

Lanesboro Arts does not cover material or transportation costs; these expenses should be factored into the $1,000/week stipend.
Artist groups are eligible to apply, but the weekly stipend is the same and must then be split amongst the collective.
Lanesboro Arts will work with each individual artist to customize their residency, aligning resources and connections to make their time in Lanesboro as fruitful as possible.
Artists must submit their application through the online webform on Lanesboro Arts website.
Artists are eligible to apply for 2 or 4 week residencies, and residency dates can be flexible (and split between two visits if that best suits your practice).
Lanesboro Arts Residencies can be scheduled any time in 2022 except for May, June, or July. Residencies scheduled in April or August are generally preferred and would be most optimal, however Lanesboro Arts staff is interested in considering proposals with flexible and dynamic artists for the months of January, February, March, September, October, November, and December. Residencies generally begin around the 1st or 16th of each month and end on the 15th or last day of each month for periods of 2 or 4 weeks. If selected for a residency, Lanesboro Arts staff will work with you to determine the exact dates best for all parties.
Artists are required to list their top three choices of dates for their residency. If selected for a residency, Lanesboro Arts staff will work with you to determine the exact dates best for all parties.
