Resident Artist Program

DISPEL Institute’s resident artist program is focused on giving established and explorative makers an opportunity in which they can push the boundaries of scale and material process through their work in ceramics.

While the DISPEL team is here to guide and assist in some capacities, the resident artist program is designed to be an independent exploration in which resident artists seek to increase the scale and complexity of their work.

A facility designed for large scale ceramics.

Based upon submission the goal of this program is to facilitate the applicants vision of making large scale ceramic works. As a way of aligning capabilities and expectations, applicants are expected to have a clear intention represented in sketches or schematics that can be reviewed.

Dates, housing fee’s, and material costs are negotiated upon submission.
