Projects do not have to be completed during the residency, but participants are expected to work toward the desired outcomes outlined in their proposal.

Upcoming Residency Opportunities:
Residency Dates: August 2nd-16th 2015
To be considered, artists must submit a project proposal to Project 387. Project proposals should be one page in length. This project proposal is the most important component to the application process. We will be selecting projects based on the concept, content, and clarity. While we are a project-based residency, we are not a product-based one. Projects do not need to be completed during the residency but are rather a way of gauging the overall logistics and individual needs of each potential participant. Due to natural limitations of the program space, projects will be reviewed and selected based on their strength in concept and feasibility.
The Proposal:
Your one page project proposal should address the following points:
- Summarize your project’s objective, giving the reader a clear understanding of your intended work.
- Express how you hope to grow your artistic practice while at Project 387.
- Tell us why, in particular, Project 387 is the right place for you.
Additional materials:
In addition to the project proposal, we ask all applicants to submit a resume, a completed questionnaire, and work samples.
Work Samples:
Visual artists should submit between 5 and 10 digital images at 200 dpi or less. No image should exceed 1200 px on its longest side.
Performance artists and filmmakers should submit 2 to 3 clips of work. No one clip should exceed 5 minutes. If you are sending a link to a larger piece, please specify which 5 minutes you wish to have reviewed.
Writers and art professionals should submit up to 10 pages of writing.
Application Fee: $25
Applications will be accepted through an online process available at project387.slideroom.com starting 2/15/15.
