Fort Worth Community Arts Center is proud to present our Collective Residency Program for art oriented organizations in the DFW area.

This program includes the following:

• 1 office space with 24/7 access on the second level of the Arts Center gallery for one year. This office measures 162 square feet. This includes a mailbox at the Arts Center, use of the conference rooms with reservation, use of the kitchen/breakroom. The value of this office is $3078.00 annually or $256.50 per month.

• Hold 3 exhibits in various galleries at the Arts Center throughout the course of the year.

• Organize and run 4 workshops throughout the year

• The use of a gallery space to hold a fundraising event at no charge to the organization other than hard costs such as labor. The value of an event for up to 100 guests is $1840.00. Labor generally runs about $600.00. All proceeds from ticket sales, donations, etc., after hard costs expenses will go completely to the organization

• Collective agrees to help promote the Arts Center fundraising event through any means possible.

• Collective agrees to partner in planning and implementation of Art-Aid Expo in June. This includes assisting with organization, sponsorships, promotion, and ideas.

• Members of Collective agree to sit on a selection panel to designate the next collective group to revive this residency opportunity.

The Arts Center will be happy to have the organization call it their home and work with your organization. We want to create this residency program as a model to offer other artist collectives to help them grow in our community.
