Apply now to become our next STAR (Space-Taking Artist Resident)! 🤩
Fresh Arts is now seeking proposals from Houston-area creatives of any discipline for the 7th iteration of the Space Taking Artist Residency (STAR) program. Apply now to become the next "STAR" Resident and join an impressive, diverse roster of artists kicking traditions and taking space.
DEADLINE TO APPLY: NOVEMBER 23, 2026
This residency provides traditionally underrepresented artists with the dedicated time and space to bring their big ideas to life for a wide public audience. Selected artists also receive support through direct mentorship, funding, and other available resources.
Each selected artist or group will have roughly six weeks of mentor-guided project development, followed by six weeks of 24-hour access to a 1,800-square-foot gallery space in Winter Street Studios at Sawyer Yards. Residents are expected to activate the space through exhibitions, performances, community programs, or other engaging activities relating to their proposed project theme or concept. Each resident artist or group will receive a $3,600 honorarium to support production costs, along with additional stipends available to help create promotional materials, as needed.
The two available residency periods are: SPRING (March 15 to April 25) and SUMMER (July 19 to August 30). Applicants may indicate their preferred residency period, though it may not be guaranteed.
