Exciting news! Fresh Arts is now accepting project proposals for the 5th year of the Space Taking Artist Residency (STAR) program. Now is your chance to become Fresh Arts’ 2025 Artist-in-Residence! Join an impressive roster of diverse Houston artists kicking traditions and taking space.

About The Call For Proposals
Fresh Arts aims to engage the community with a diverse range of public programs and exhibitions created by underrepresented artists, and is seeking proposals from Houston-area artists, creatives, collectives, and curators for a six-week Space Taking Artist Residency project.

Two selected projects will be awarded full access to a 1,800 sq. foot gallery space for a period of six weeks, a $3,400 stipend to help with production costs, and complete marketing and project support from Fresh Arts.

Selected artists are able to fully “take over” the space, activating it in accordance to their proposed public programs and exhibitions. Fresh Arts also encourages artists to use this as an opportunity to generate additional income streams for themselves.
