Program Description

The Eskenazi School of Art, Architecture + Design invites applicants for the 2026 McKinney Visiting Artist Lecture Series. Residents must remain in residence for the full period of the residency. In addition, prospective residents will coordinate with the Eskenazi School to offer studio visits, open studios, and a workshop based on technical/conceptual innovations. Studio space, lodging, and a fellowship of $8,000 USD will be provided. This fellowship will be distributed in two parts, one portion prior to arrival in order to assist with travel costs to Indianapolis Airport, and the remaining balance will be distributed after the completion of the visit. The Eskenazi School will also provide health insurance for the length of the appointment and purchase up to $500 in supplies during the visit. Other studio expenses will be the responsibility of the successful applicant. For full details, visit: https://eskenazi.indiana.edu/news/2023/2026-mckinney-international-resident.html
