MARR’s mission is to challenge the perception of waste culture by providing a unique platform for artists at the intersection of art, community, and waste systems. The Moab area is highly impacted by the tourism industry and, as a result, waste management. By facilitating artists’ direct engagement with the waste stream, MARR encourages resident artists to consider their studio practice through the lens of sustainability and to thoughtfully re-assess their processes of material sourcing and waste disposal.

Through a 4-week residency, the program offers artists studio space, project and community facilitation, a stipend, access to materials at local waste disposal sites, and the time and space to focus solely on their art. As a component of each residency, artists spend time providing opportunities for learning, dialog and enrichment within the community.

‘ECHO III: for memory’s sake’ is an arts and heritage project that aims to bring together artists working in the fields of theatre, music, visual arts, and literature in order to explore tradition and culture through the themes of marriage, arranged marriages and nuclear families in the Balkan context. Specifically, the aim is to explore gender roles and norms through history and how all of the above affect young people and artists living in Europe. 

ECHO III is looking for 24 artists, 6 Greek, 6 Romanian, 6 Bulgarian, 6 Albanian, working in the fields of theatre, music, visual arts, and literature to participate in the three stages of the project:

1st phase (Ethnographic Research): Ethnographic research will be conducted by professionals from 4 Balkan countries (Greece, Romania, Bulgaria, Albania) based on the theme of marriage in the Balkans to explore how gender issues affect the new generation.
2nd phase of ECHO III (Presentation of the results): Research results will be presented to the public through 4 artistic events; a theatre performance (Athens), video poems screenings (Bucharest), a concert (Sofia) & a poetry night (Tirana). 
3rd phase of ECHO III (Wandering Arts Caravan): The goal of the Caravan is to keep talking about marriage, forced marriage and gender issues that are deep rooted in the Balkan societies, through culture. Thus, the last phase of ECHO III is for the contributors of the artistic events/results to go on a tour to Balkan cities, performing their art together and present the gender roles and norms through.
Applying artists pick one of four residencies taking place online and in the partner countries: Athens Art Residency (Theatre) during January 2023 – March 2023, Bucharest Art Residency (Visual Arts) in March 2023, Sofia Art Residency (Music) during January – February 2023, Albania Art Residency (Literature) in March 2023.

Nanjing UNESCO City of Literature in China has launched the open call for the Nanjing Virtual Writers’ Residency 2022. Applicants should come from UNESCO literary cities. Six resident writers, poets or translators will be selected by the panel for a virtual residency in November 2022.

The theme of the programme for 2022 is ‘Rivers and Literature’. Rivers throughout the world have made a significant contribution to culture and civilisation, making themselves a constant topic for literary creation. Waterways can serve as a source of literary imagination. They can turn into the main character in literary works. And in many cases they are the bearers of literary stories, making cultural communication fluid and far-reaching.

Selected writers will enjoy virtual tours of literary landmarks in Nanjing, and participate in online workshops with local writers, to share views on such topics as literature’s role in a digital era, or the relationship between literature and urban life. 

Applicants are expected to:

Create a literary work in English, which is inspired by the virtual residency.
Be fluent in English, or Chinese.
Have at least three years of experience in writing, or at least one published work in print.

The 2023 Residency Program
If you desire strawberries, you eat them. If you love strawberries, you grow them yourself. – Hannah Arendt

We are excited to introduce the theme for our 2023 Residency: FOOD & AGRICULTURE.
Food is inextricably connected to thriving people, sustainable environments, prosperous economies and community resilience. Looking forward, many agricultural practices will need to adapt (if they haven’t already) to meet the challenges posed by changes to our environment, climate and population. In recent years, significant efforts have been made to shift away from the industrialized system that currently dominates the food industry, in the hope that a collection of more holistic techniques and sources of food production solutions will take its place. These efforts also explore collaborative forms of community interactions that give rise to community-supported agricultural initiatives such as farmers’ markets and seed to table co-operatives, which encourage us to eat more seasonally and locally.

Aiming to improve our understanding of regional community food systems (from production to processing to distribution to consumer) and to explore strategies for strengthening local food systems, for this residency cycle we invite artists, culture bearers, scientists, scholars and researchers to reflect on the theme of food & agriculture as foundational expressions of life.

THE STANDARD RESIDENCY 

In 1999, Wildacres Retreat opened our residency program for artists.  Since that time, we have had the opportunity to host hundreds of writers, artisans, and musicians. Participants in the program stay in one of three self-catering cabins located just a quarter-mile beyond the retreat entrance. One of the cabins is completely ADA compliant and another can house two residents working on a project together.

Using the space provided by the three cabins, Wildacres hosts approximately seventy artists each year for one-week residencies from April through October. Residencies begin on Monday afternoons and run until Sunday mornings. While there are landlines at each residency cabin, there is no internet access in the cabins, and cellphones do not typically connect except in the main part of the retreat where we do have WiFi access.  The residency program allows artists the solitude and inspiration needed to begin or continue work on a project in their particular field of creative arts.  Past residents tell us that being able to work in such a secluded, natural setting provides them with an unparalleled opportunity to step away from outside distractions and completely focus on their work.

LAUREL CABIN: Wildacres residencies are offered at no cost to participants.  Residents have the option to eat in the dining room with other residents, guests, and staff, or they may prepare their own meals in their cabin.  Participants are responsible for providing their own transportation to and from Wildacres, as well as while they are at the retreat.  They are also responsible for any supplies they may need during their residency.  As the residencies are intended to be working retreats, spouses/partners, guests, and pets are not permitted. AZALEA CABIN: We allow two people collaborating on a project to come together and stay in Azalea cabin, which has a loft to accommodate a second person. When two candidates apply for a joint residency, we ask them to fill out one application stating the nature of their project and include information about both participants, as well as resumes from both individuals. OWL’S NEST CABIN: Each year we offer a few two-week residencies. Individuals wishing to apply for a two-week residency are required to answer questions on the application specifically about that length of stay. Our two-week residencies are very limited and not guaranteed.

CRITICAL RACE THEORY AND VISUAL CULTURE FELLOWSHIP
Fellowships are awarded every year to established and promising scholars with the aim of fostering a critical commitment to inquiry in the theory, history, and interpretation of art and visual culture. As part of our commitment to cultivating diverse engagements with the visual arts, RAP seeks to elevate constituencies, subjects, and methods that have historically been underrepresented in the discipline. Furthermore, we are particularly committed to supporting scholarship that reveals the systemic inequalities of art history as a discipline and challenges us to address these inequalities as we move forward differently. All fellowships are intended to nurture a variety of disciplinary approaches and support new voices in art history.

This fellowship aims to support scholars who are working to reimagine new art histories while also engaging with the structural racism that has informed and built the discipline.
