Workspace Program
Artist Open Call
The Jamaica Center for Arts & Learning (JCAL) is dedicated to
encouraging public participation in the arts and contributing to the
cultural enrichment of Queens and the greater metropolitan area
through its visual, performing and literary arts, arts education and
artist programs.
JCAL's Workspace Program is tailored to support an artist in his/her
creation and presentation of new works. Through the program, JCAL
provides an emerging artist with a private, 750-square-foot,
non-living studio space and access to JCAL's office and studio
facilities (computer, ceramics and painting) for a period of 12
months. The artist is awarded a stipend of up to $7,000 and offered
to exhibit his/her work in JCAL's gallery at the conclusion of
residency.
The secure, private studio is located on JCAL's third floor. It
features three large windows with northern light exposure, track
lighting, storage space, wall spaces for large-scale paintings and
blackout shades for photography or projection. Lavatory facilities
and a telephone are in close proximity.
The resident artist has access to the studio during JCAL's business
hours. Operation hours are subject to change. The resident artist is
encouraged to engage in conversations with JCAL visitors and art
professionals through open studios, slide talks, workshops and
gallery talks. The residency starts July 1 every year and concludes
June 30 of the following year.
