Program at a glance

* Functioning as a hybrid work/trade exchange and residency program, Fob Holders commit to working a minimum of 8 scheduled hours per week in the studio in exchange for unlimited 24 hour access.
* Mondays & Tuesdays will be closed to the public and members so that the Fob Holders have dedicated time to work.
* Fob holders are encouraged to be involved beyond monitoring the studio by contributing to other aspects of the organization such as assisting with special events, improving the studios, or providing general administrative support.
* Selected applicants must make a four-month commitment to SSP and are expected to contribute to the studio community beyond their personal practice.
* **Basic knowledge of printmaking techniques is required.** Technical assistance is not included in the program.
* Housing and travel accommodations are not included in the program.

  
Each Fob Holder is given unlimited access to the facilities, storage for their materials, opportunities to sell and exhibit work and exposure to other artists at varying stages in their careers. 

Fob holders play a key role in the day-to-day function of SSP by assisting other members, making sure that the shop runs smoothly and managing the monitor schedule. They are ambassadors to the shop and are knowledgeable in various printmaking processes.

Printmakers who are self-motivated and are interested in engaging with and building their community are encouraged to apply.
