Open AIR Artist Residencies

Open AIR, a Missoula-based artist organization, has opened their call for artists and is actively accepting applications from creative professionals of all artistic mediums. This is an excellent opportunity for artists seeking residency experiences in Montana. The organization recently expanded its facilities by purchasing a home in Missoula that now serves as both their offices and lodging accommodations for guest artists participating in their residency programs. The residency program welcomes diverse artistic practices and disciplines, making it accessible to painters, sculptors, digital artists, performers, and other creative professionals. Artists selected for the residency will have access to dedicated workspace, lodging, and opportunities to engage with the local Missoula arts community. This residency provides a unique chance to develop work in a supportive environment while being part of an established artist collective. The program appears designed to foster artistic growth, collaboration, and community engagement. Open AIR's commitment to providing both professional workspace and accommodations makes this an attractive option for artists seeking an immersive creative experience. Applications are being accepted on a rolling basis, and interested artists should submit their materials through the official application portal to be considered for available residency slots.
