The Nicholson Project was founded with a deep commitment to providing artists with space and support to create and further their practice. Our Residency Program provides the time, space, and support needed for artists to work on their studio practice and produce onsite activations. We want you to feel 100% supported during your time at Nicholson and beyond.

  
Each residency is for 10 weeks. This year’s application will be to award residencies for the 2026 calendar year. In your application, you will be asked to indicate which periods work for your schedule. If you are selected then our staff will be in touch with you to set the exact dates.
