Info-session: Workspace Residency, Spring 2025

Saturday, September 21, 3–4 pm
Free; RSVP below

Learn more about Squeaky Wheel’s Workspace Residency and how to apply to the Spring 2025 session! Curator Ekrem Serdar will be going over the program, how it supports media artists working in a variety of forms, and go over the application. The majority of the session will be dedicated to answer questions from attendees. The info-session will take place right after the September meet-up of Squeaky Wheel’s A.V. Club.

Squeaky Wheel’s Workspace Residency supports artists and researchers working on media arts projects. The short-term residency is open to applicants from Buffalo and across the United States who are seeking resources, time, and support for ongoing projects or the creation of new work.

Residents have tailored access to facilities, equipment, technical consultation, from Squeaky Wheel, as well as our partners Buffalo Game Space, The Foundry, Mirabo Press, and Silo City. Residents present on their work together in a public event, present a workshop for the Squeaky Wheel community, and participate in tailored activities, such as field trips, critiques, among others.

Selected by panels that include former residents and community partners, the residency is a framework that informs and shapes our future public exhibitions and events. Former residents have been invited to present exhibitions, performances, screenings, among other activities. We aim to support our residents’ careers and continue our relationships after the residency has concluded.

The Spring 2025 session of the residency will be accepting applications from September 23 to October 25. Learn more and apply here.
