The Houston Center for Contemporary Craft Studio Residency Program
Deadline September 1
Program supporting emerging, mid-career, and established artists working in craft media, including but not limited to clay, fiber, glass, metal, and wood. Artists selected for the program will receive a 200–square-foot rent-free studio and a monthly stipend of $400. Studios are naturally lit and equipped with sinks, telephones, and DSL Internet access. The residency length is variable: three, six, or twelve months. Artists will be selected based on the quality of their work and their interest in working at the center and making a difference in Houston’s cultural community. In addition to studio space and stipend, participating artists will have access to a wide variety of resources and opportunities, including teaching opportunities, representation in the HCCC sales gallery, and collaborative opportunities.
Applicants must be able to fulfill a program requirement of twenty-four hours per week spent in their studio during the center’s public hours. For information, contact Amanda Clifford, (713) 529-4848 ext. 104; www.crafthouston.org.
Hello,
What is the deadline to apply for this residency, and are international clay artists eligible?
looking forward to more details,

Hello Shazieh,
As far as the deadline it is September 1st every year, and I’ve had a look at their website (www.crafthouston.org) and there seems to be nothing in the eligibility that talks specifically about international artists. So I would assume that international artists are welcome, but maybe contact them directly to inquire. On their website they say to email Jason Kishell at [email protected] for more information.
Best Wishes,
Carole
