Contemporary Artists Center is a non-profit arts organization that provides 2-wk to 3-month long artist residencies in Troy, NY. Emerging artists of all disciplines and from all over the world live and work in a historic Neo-Gothic chapel, featuring 20-ft. high ceilings, adaptable 24-hour studios, and a growing body of specialized tools. Situated just 2.5 hours north of NYC, CAC is conveniently accessible by car, bus, train or airplane. We encourage creativity, dialogue, experimentation, and a diversity of styles and formats (2D, 3D, 4D). Programming includes weekly critiques and outings, lectures, and possible exhibition opportunities. All artists receive some level of financial assistance and may also be eligible for work exchange. Submissions may be sent via email or regular mail and require a $15 application fee. DEADLINE: Feb 15 for upcoming 2013 spring residency fellowships. Website: http://www.cactroy.org/residencies.php
