    Mayor's Office of Arts and Culture Call to Artists: Boston Artists in Residence

    Posted Wednesday September 23 2015 at 10:11 pm

    Boston Artists in Residence

    The Mayor's Office of Arts and Culture, in coordination with the Massachusetts College of Art and Design, invites Boston artists to apply to Boston AIR to become an artist in residence within a City of Boston department or agency.

    Boston AIR Stage One: Request for Qualifications

    A cohort of ten artists will be invited to study and expand their own civic and social practice, alongside a parallel cohort of City employees who will be exposed to examples of artistic practices which incorporate art and artists into government work.  Artists will receive $1,000 stipends for capacity development and support as they create proposals to work with a City department or agency.  Both the artist and City cohorts will attend master workshops and lectures by guest artists and have opportunities to exchange ideas and co-design proposals.

    Boston AIR Stage Two: Request for Proposals

    Three artists will be awarded $20,000 stipends each for six-month-long residencies within a City of Boston department or agency to develop and test ways that creative approaches can meaningfully impact the work of the public sector.

    The City of Boston cohort includes representatives from the following departments (not a final list) the Office of Women’s Advancement, Veterans Services, Elderly Affairs, Mayor's Commission for Persons with Disabilities, Department of Neighborhood Development, Boston Transportation Department, Department of Public Works, Parks and Recreation Department, the Education Cabinet, the Office of Arts and Culture, and the Mayor's Office.

    Deadline: Sunday September 27, 2015
