Rehearsal space grants are six hours per week for four months. Showing grants provide artists with two weekends (Friday - Sunday evenings) to show developing works in an informal setting.
Participation is by lottery!
Drawings are held three times a year, approximately one month prior to each residency period. These periods are: January - April, May - August, and September - December. Applications for the September - December residencies will be available starting June 26 online or by contacting The Field. The next deadline is August 2 at 5 pm.
Participation fee for the lottery is $25 for nonmembers; members apply for free! The $25 fee is transferable to any other Field program or can be used towards membership.

"It has been such a gift to have six hours a week of free space to dedicate to my art. I hope this program continues into the future indefinitely."
