RESIDENCIES

studioELL offers artist residencies in support of building everyday practice. Because we know the challenges of establishing and maintaining an individual practice, we aim to offer unique opportunities to give artists more agency in their lives and in their own studios. Professional practice residencies have been at the fore of these offerings.

We will continue to support additional residency programs in the future in collaboration with our community partners.


studioELL’s @HOME Residency is a bi-annual artist residency program that offers artists the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in their own studio environments while benefiting from critique and support provided by visiting artists and the studioELL team. Designed to provide a balance of independence and community, the residency emphasizes the artist’s creative process, discoveries and research.

Each resident artist shares weekly progress on studioELL.org, offering audiences an intimate glimpse into their studio practice. The residency culminates in a final exhibition and artist lecture, providing a platform to reflect on the artistic journey and present the work created during the residency.

Launched in 2022 with inaugural resident Tracy Holtham and followed in 2024 by Melissa Dunn, the @HOME Residency continues to evolve as a celebrated program that champions the studio practice and artistic exploration.
