Flux Factory Community Organizer // Curatorial Residencies Flux Factory (Long Island City NY).

The Flux Artist-in-Residence program is growing to include two new specialized residencies, a curatorial residency and a community organizer residency.

Flux Factory’s unique participatory residency program serves over 30 cultural producers from around the world each year. Fluxers focus on their own practices while working together as a collective to develop Flux Factory’s programs, and to help shape Flux’s expansive and intentional community.

CURATORIAL

Two-six month residencies for emerging US-based curators per year. Both residencies will culminate in public exhibitions and related programming, which may include panel discussions, artist talks, screenings, or publications. Resident curators will also have the opportunity to work with Flux Factory to develop and produce our collective exhibitions and educational programming during their stay and beyond.

The two exhibitions and related educational programming will be generously supported, in part, by the National Endowment for the Arts. Residents are responsible for the cost of the studio for this residency, approximately $750 each month.

The first residency at Flux will take place from May 1st – November 1st, 2013 with a culminating exhibition in mid-October, and the second from November 1st, 2013 – May 1st, 2014 with an exhibition in mid-April.

APPLICATION DEADLINE: March 15th, 2013

COMMUNITY ORGANIZER

In collaboration with staff and residents, the resident community organizer will initiate and implement programming that engages Flux Factory’s diverse stakeholders, while introducing the organization to new communities.

The residency will be between 6 – 12 months, beginning in fall 2013. Studio cost is approximately $800 each month.

APPLICATION DEADLINE: April 1st, 2013
