Eligibility

The four primary eligibility guidelines for the Anderson Center’s Emerging Artist Residency are: 1. Legal residency in the State of Minnesota or one of the five boroughs of New York City. 2. Not enrolled in any degree-granting program from time of application through residency period. 3. Self-identification as an “emerging artist” with 2-10 years of generative experience in the field. 4. An artistic practice centered in generating and creating entirely new work. Please visit the application form page for complete details on eligibility. Artists of all disciplines are eligible and are encouraged to apply. Age is not a factor in determining "emerging artist" status.

Number of Participants

The Anderson Center at Tower View's Emerging Artist Residency Program is a one-month residency-fellowship opportunity for five artists at a time in August 2023. August is the only month the Emerging Artist Residency Program takes place. Collaborative applications are welcome, but collaborative residencies are also rare. The program is extremely competitive and space is simply limited. The organization also believes that the environment and resources of Tower View, along with an exchange of ideas between artists working across disciplines, can serve as a catalyst for new inspiration and innovative directions for the work emerging artists create while in residence.
