residency for mothers & families

Ramona Residency will offer fully funded two-week residences for mothers and their families at our residency house located in Houston, Texas. Please note there is not a separate studio space, therefore artists who are able to work within the home or on the outdoor back deck are encouraged to apply. 

The residency includes furnished accommodations/studio and a $500 stipend. Artist mothers and/or female identifying caregivers will be selected through this open call process. The residency will accommodate one artist and her family at a time. A partner/spouse/family member can join in a caregiving role for attending children.  

**Residency Expectations

The aim for Ramona Residency is to not only provide support for the artist mother but also to enrich the Houston community through opportunities to engage with the artist directly and the residency program. Each resident will have the opportunity to meet with local curators and artists. The residency concludes with an open studio and/or artist talk and will be scheduled towards the middle or end of the residency period. 

Available residency slots include:

May 1-15, May 17-31
June 1-15, June 17-30
July 1-15, and July 17-31
