Artist-in-Residence Application
2023 Artist-in-Residence Application
BCA’s artist-in-residence program offers regional, national, and international artists of all disciplines an opportunity to focus on process rather than product while engaging with the local community in a meaningful way.
Visiting artists
live and work for one to two months in the Breckenridge Arts District, an intimate campus of historic structures nestled under majestic snow-capped peaks in cozy downtown Breckenridge. During their live/work residency, artists explore a place-based thematic narrative—whether that means interpreting our spectacular mountain setting, rich local history, or risk-taking spirit; or focusing on an environmental or social topic important to the community. Artists are offered a weekly stipend of $200 to cover food and other expenses. Paid teaching opportunities are available with BCA approval.
Artist expectations include: facilitating two weekly open studios (on campus), participating in monthly Second Saturdays, and planning and hosting a final presentation or event produced in collaboration with a local partner. Artists with teaching experience will be favored. BCA offers classes in the following mediums: ceramics, metalsmithing, glassblowing, welding, printmaking, sewing/textiles, painting, woodworking, mountain crafts + skills, kids workshops, mixed media. Only artists with a website or social media platform will be considered.
The artist-in-residence program is a partnership between Breckenridge Creative Arts and the Saddle Rock Society.
Application deadline is September 1, 2022.
