We are thrilled to announce that applications are now open for the 2022 Arts Center Residency!

The Arts Center at Governors Island is home to year-round artist residency programs for artists working in any discipline. Artists are invited to explore the principal themes of equity and sustainability throughout their residency with Governors Island serving as a site for research and experimentation.

Concurrent to Governors Island’s ambitious plans for addressing climate change and environmental issues in the long-term, the Arts Center Residency encourages creative practices that engage with social and climate justice, NYC harbor history, urban ecology, and water.

During the three-month session, residents receive their own dedicated studio space alongside opportunities for professional and creative development. Open Studios events take place during The Arts Center’s public season of May - October.

The 2022 residency is offered in three sessions:
