Event History
Since 2014 Guttenberg Arts has hosted thirty three exhibitions, forty two Artists in Residence, thirty two artist talks, twenty two free workshops, two panels and has awarded over $100,000.00 cash-in-hands stipends to both artists and arts professionals. Guttenberg Arts has partnered with over a dozen other arts non-profits and community groups and is growing to serve more artists and community members for the decades to come.
What Makes this event different?
Guttenberg Arts supports artists from diverse cultural, sexual, and ethnic backgrounds. Guttenberg Arts does not discriminate based on gender, age, ethnicity, sexuality, or ability/disability of artists. Guttenberg Arts welcomes artwork whose content reflects the lived experiences of the applicants.
The Space and Time Artist Residency at Guttenberg Arts provides artists with a $1,200.00 USD stipend. The stipend is for material, travel, and housing in conjunction with 24/7 shared access to a 4,500 sq. ft. professionally equipped workspace for the visual arts that includes printmaking, darkroom and ceramics facilities for three months in Guttenberg, New Jersey (just across the Hudson River).
At the end of the residency artists are given a group show, as well as studio visits from accomplished professionals from the art world. Each participating artist resident is required to give a free public artist lecture or workshop towards the close of their three month residency and they are required to spend a minimum of 15 hours a week in studio. We highly recommend a site visit to our building if you are at all unsure of your commute or have questions regarding our facilities. Artists are selected by a blind jury of arts professionals on the merits of their work.
Guttenberg Arts is dedicated to promoting the visual arts by providing practicing artists with the time and space to develop their work while engaging with the public. Guttenberg Arts intends to increase opportunities for supported artists by expanding their community through artistic collaborations and promotion to curators and collectors in the tri-state area.
