Program Description

PlySpace is an artist-in-residence program in Muncie, Indiana, that is dedicated to offering visual artists, writers, performers, designers, and other creative individuals time and space to investigate and pursue their own practices. Additionally, it serves as a platform for experimentation and provocation by catalyzing conversation and collaboration with various Muncie communities. PlySpace facilitates opportunities for residents to engage with the public through partnership and programming that is tailored to their area of interest. Each resident will propose a personal project as well as a project to be completed in partnership with a community collaborator. The residency is fully funded with a $500 living stipend and a $500 travel stipend plus additional funding. We are now accepting applications for the Spring 2020 term, with flexible residency periods from 4-12 weeks beginning in February. Applications are due July 1, 2019.
