Call for studio artists
April 6, 2011
St. Charles, MO
The Foundry Art Centre located in Historic St. Charles, Missouri, is currently accepting applications for available studio space.
Studio artists will be selected by a jury panel in May 2011, to rent studio
space for one year, renewable for up to three years. Foundry Studio Artists
serve as part of the dynamic atmosphere that sets the Foundry apart from
other organizations and as such are required to commit to a moderate amount
of time in their studios during operating hours and Foundry sponsored
events.
Located on the mezzanine level, the glass-fronted studios afford natural
light and 24 hour access. The cost of studio space is $8.60 per sq. ft. for
all studios and includes basic utilities. Artists are encouraged to consider
joint application for larger studios to help defray expenses and to meet the
Center¹s minimum hours of open-studio time for studio residents.
