Program Description

Support offered: $1000 in artist fees and stipends, up to $700 in financial assistance for childcare and/or disability support. Squeaky Wheel’s Workspace Residency is a project-based residency for artists and researchers working in media arts. The residency is open to applicants from Buffalo and across the United States who are seeking resources and time to support ongoing projects or the creation of new work. Residents will have tailored access to facilities, equipment, curatorial and technical consultation from Squeaky Wheel, as well as our Workspace Residency partners Buffalo Game Space and The Foundry. Residents will also have the opportunity to attend guest lectures, are provided with public opportunities to share and receive feedback for their work, and will be invited to a variety of site visits and activities. Squeaky Wheel will assess whether the residency can take place in-person depending on case rates of COVID-19, and will continue to offer a virtual residency option.
