The Luminary 2025 Residency (Due Dec. 14)

The Luminary 2025 Residency
Deadline: December 14th, 2025

The Luminary supports exceptional ideas and initiatives through fully funded residencies that provide dedicated time, considered collaborations and a supportive working environment. The program is open to all artists, curators and critics, but uniquely supports the research, development and presentation of work that utilizes innovative forms and unconventional structures such as alternative spaces and economies, publications and writing, archives, collaborations, artist-led projects and experimental institutional practices. Our open calls are oriented around distinct sessions that engage thematic interests being explored elsewhere in the institution through exhibitions, publications, and extensive public programs.

Artists, curators, arts writers, and researchers of all disciplines can propose an artistic research project to pursue during their visit to St. Louis. Hosted at The Luminary's apartment for one to four weeks, each resident receives a weekly per-diem and funded travel. The application is now closed. Our next open call will be posted in Summer 2025.
