Artist Studio Space Available at Howard County Center for the Arts

The Howard County Arts Council (HCAC) is seeking applications from artists to fill one available resident artist studio space. The available studio is approximately 216 square feet, rents for $146.16 per month, and has shared access with two other artists in an adjoining studio. The deadline to apply is 5:00 PM Friday, May 2, 2014.

HCAC houses accessible studio space for fourteen resident artists, as well as three resident arts organizations representing a variety of disciplines. Resident artists have 24-hour access, natural light and easy access to water. Heat & utilities are included.

HCAC resident artists are required to participate in an annual resident artists’ exhibit/showcase, open their studios for up to four ‘open studio’ events per year, maintain membership in the Howard County Arts Council, use their studio an average of eight hours per week, and carry liability insurance as outlined in their lease. Initial leases are for a one-year period; upon successful completion of a studio review, lease renewals are offered in two-year, renewable terms to artists meeting the conditions of their lease.
