A List of Fully-Funded Photography Residencies with Darkrooms
Photo residencies offer extremely valuable time and resources. They are opportunities to step away from your daily routine and responsibilities to dedicate an extended period of time, energy, and thought to your artistic practice. Photographers use residencies to finish projects, edit and print bodies of work, begin new work, experiment, produce images for ongoing projects, sequence exhibitions and photobooks, and more.
About This Opportunity
In keeping with The Open Call List’s emphasis on artist-friendly opportunities, this guide presents only residencies that are fully-funded. Every residency below offers cost-free participation, housing, food, and access to facilities during the entire duration of the residency. Many of the residencies also include generous stipends, travel honoraria, and/or other forms of support. This guide specifically contains residencies that include darkroom facilities, though not all require analog photographic practices to apply.
