American Indian Artists Residency Deadline

American Indian Artists Residency
DEADLINE: June 15th, 2010
FULLY -FUNDED RESIDENCY September 1st - 30th, 2010
*If you miss the deadline, we encourage you to apply just in case there are cancellations.

The American Indian Artists Residency is dedicated to supporting the creativity of established and emerging Native artists, generating a beneficial dialogue in support of the self-defining movement in the Native American arts.

For the ninth year, the Montana Artists Refuge presents the American Indian Artists Residency. In September, this unique program will host five Native American artists for 30-day art making residencies in Basin, Montana. Each artist will be given their own live/work space with independent kitchens and bathrooms. They will also receive stipends for travel, food and art materials. Resident artists will be selected by a committee of Native American artists and arts professionals.

In 2010, an inspiring collective of celebrated Native American artists inhabited the the American Indian Artists Residency (AIAR) working committee. Co-chairs Bently Spang and Corwin Clairmont, along with Jeneese Hilton, Vic Charlo, Molly Murphy, Dyani Bingham of the Montana Arts Council and MAR's Melissa Bangs, are breathing new life into the vision and potential impact of the residency and two-day symposium. The program will work to foster a sense of community and to break down the isolation that many Native artists experience, creating a bond that can be relied on - a sustainable community of Native artists.
