The CultureHub Residency Program supports artists experimenting with emerging technologies in search of new artistic forms. We are seeking artists developing new projects that are both critically and imaginatively informed by technology.

  
This year, we are accepting proposals in two tracks: ON LOOP (Interactive Installation track) and IRL/URL (Hybrid Performance track). The key difference between the tracks is how projects engage their audience. Projects can utilize technologies such as telepresence, virtual reality, augmented reality, artificial intelligence, robotics, creative coding, live web, game design, etc. and can be at various stages of development. 

**1\. ON LOOP** 

_Interactive Installation track_

This track supports artists developing technologically-informed projects that can be experienced on a loop. Projects should explore ways to design meaningful forms of interaction with audiences that could occur in a gallery or in another installation setting. Within the CultureHub studio, projects may use software and hardware to sequence audio, video, lighting, and other technological elements to create cohesive narrative or experiential works. 

**2\. IRL/URL**

_Hybrid Performance track_

This track supports artists developing time-based works that engage an audience simultaneously in-person and online. Projects may leverage hardware and software to create performative systems that engage distributed audiences. Artists will have access to LiveLab and the CultureHub Broadcaster, two open-source platforms for telepresence and interactive livestreaming, which can be used along with any other tools relevant to the project's development.

  
CultureHub envisions a world where technology amplifies our humanity rather than diminishes it. We support artists who critically examine technology from a wide array of mediums and creative perspectives. We encourage applicants to learn about our current and past Resident Artists and view past projects prior to submitting an application.

  
We are accepting proposals for both tracks in New York and Los Angeles. You must select which CultureHub studio you are applying to and which track you are applying to. One application per person, please. You may not submit to both locations or to both tracks.

  
The CultureHub Residency program will offer residencies to artists in the fall of 2025 and early winter 2026\. Artists will receive at least one week of studio access with full technical support at CultureHub New York OR Los Angeles to target specific areas of their project’s development and share it with the CultureHub community. The residency does not have to culminate in a completed work. 

Resident Artists will have access to the following support and opportunities:

* Access to the CultureHub studio, equipment, and technical support for at least 1 week in residence at the CultureHub studios in New York or Los Angeles, which are flexible spaces equipped with reconfigurable lighting, audio, video, and projection systems.
* Present one public offering to the CultureHub community during their residency (i.e. work in progress showing, artist talk, curatorial event, workshop, etc.).
* A $2000 stipend for the development of their project, which can be used how the artist sees fit.
* Marketing support through our website, email newsletters, and social media.
* Assistance with photo and video documentation of the project.
* Connect with the residency cohort and network of past residents.
