Artpace
Open Studios
Three times a year, Artpace invites a guest curator to choose three artists to live and create art in San Antonio for two full months. Each residency cycle includes one international, one national, and one Texas-based artist. Each resident receives a studio space, a stipend, a production budget, and the support of a full-time staff. The mission of this program is to provide artists with unparalleled resources that enable them to experiment with new ideas, take provocative risks, and realize innovative and ambitious new work.
The Open Studios program presented by Austin Eastciders offers the chance for the public to get a first-hand behind the scenes look into the artists’ process and have intimate conversations about their upcoming Artpace project. The program is free and open to the entire community.
Artpace
Artpace was founded by artist, collector, and businesswoman Linda Pace (1945-2007) in 1993 and opened to the public in 1995. Pace conceived of Artpace as a laboratory of dreams, providing artists from all over the world with an environment that would encourage experimentation and growth.
