Residency

> Facilities + Resources Since 1981, Bemis Center has provided artists from around the world with dedicated time, space, and resources to conduct research and to create new work. January 21–April 17, 2026 The Bemis residency is a process-based experience–residents have the ability to research, experiment, and explore free from expectations. Bemis residents enjoy generous sized, private live/work studios and have 24-hour access to extensive installation and production spaces; the Okada Sculpture & Ceramics Facility, a 9,000 square foot industrial workshop used for large-scale sculpture fabrication; and a Sound Studio for rehearsing and recording. Professional collaborations and personal friendships are often formed among the multidisciplinary mix of residents from around the world.
