About the program

Located in the heart of Savannah's Starland District at ARTS Southeast, the fully-funded ON::View Artist Residency provides a free, high visibility studio space, lodging, and $500 stipend for an artist or curator to complete a new project, continue an in-progress endeavor, or to conduct research. The studio's large windows look out onto Bull Street, the district's main thoroughfare, allowing the resident's work to be on view to the community at all times. Visitors and passersby on the sidewalk witness the resident's process as it unfolds in real time, seeing all the steps involved from concept to final execution. Community events like lectures, workshops, and public art projects offer creative ways to interact with the public. ARTS Southeast's international ON::View Artist Residency is the only one of its kind in Savannah and is proud to provide financial support, studio space, and living accommodations to creatives from around the globe working in all media.
