FRANCONIA FELLOWSHIP RESIDENCY

The Franconia Fellowship supports mid-career artists working in sculpture and installation, including land art, ceramics, contemporary craft, experimental sound/music, and performance art. 

Fellowships for artists making object-based work offer a self-directed residency and $7500 stipend to fabricate and install work for exhibition in the 50-acre outdoor sculpture park. These fellows also stay on-site between two – six weeks within the timeframes offered; residency dates will be scheduled directly with the residency director. 

Fellowships for artists working in performance include a $7500 stipend and dynamic professional opportunities.
