Black C Art Gallery’s Artist in Residence Program invites innovative artists and performers to come to Gainesville, FL, to create new works in dance, theatre, music, new media, performance art, writing, or poetry that will culminate in an exhibition and/or final performance at the gallery. The residency program is interactive and enables gallery visitors to meet the artists, while also giving the artists an opportunity to work with the public and academic communities at the University of Florida and Santa Fe State College. 

Black C Art offers residencies three times a year – fall, spring, and summer. The residency program includes housing at a downtown apartment within walking distance of the gallery. Selected Artists-in-Residence are expected to work in the gallery’s designated studio space 20 or more hours per week and be available to speak with visitors.  The residency culminates in an exhibition and/or performance of the artist’s work at the Artwalk that concludes their term.
