ANNOUNCING NEW RESIDENCY PROGRAM
Edgar Heap of Birds Family Artist Residency
The Tyler School of Art and Architecture offers a five-month residency (January through May 2025) in the Art Department, which is composed of undergraduate and graduate degree programs in Ceramics, Fibers and Material Studies, Glass, Metals/Jewelry/CAD-CAM, Painting, Photography, Printmaking, and Sculpture. The residency will be awarded to an artist whose work is primarily focused on the history and lived experience of North American federally recognized tribal citizens and who exemplifies the art and activism of the artist Edgar Heap of Birds in bringing attention to the lives, struggles and triumphs of Native Americans. The artist in residence will have the opportunity to mentor and advise Tyler students. The residency will culminate in an exhibition to be held in the Edgar Heap of Birds Family Gallery in Temple Contemporary, Tyler’s center for exhibitions and public programs.
Applications for the Spring 2025 residency are now closed.
Support for Temple Contemporary is provided by the Philadelphia Cultural Fund.
