2025 air open call

The KinoSaito Residency Program is a studio and residency program designed to provide artists with the space and time necessary to focus concentrated attention on any part of their practice they feel is ripe for development. For this A.I.R. Open Call program, we will host two artists for a one time four-week session to be held November 12 – December 7, 2025. The aim of this program is to ensure that practicing artists, their ideas and their energy will be a constant presence at KinoSaito.

When Kikuo Saito and Mikiko Ino purchased this property and the much-treasured school building in 2014, it was their dream that it would one day serve as a space for artists to work, play, experiment and collaborate. The KinoSaito Studios give artists the freedom to work every day in a quiet setting free from outside demands and responsibilities.

The selected artists will be chosen by a jury of arts professionals based on the quality of the submitted work, and the artworks’ alignment with KinoSaito’s mission.
