Residency Information
The overarching theme for the Winter and Summer Residency is "Collaboration". The subtheme for the Summer (Apr-Sept) residency is "Play on Ceramics".
I am interested in the following residency:
*
Full Shelf / 6 months / $775
Half Shelf / 6 months / $600
I'll take a half shelf if a full shelf isn't available, but would prefer a full shelf.
Financial Assistance Options
*
I can pay in full.
I can pay full price, but would like to set up a payment plan.
I am interested in applying for a work exchange opportunity to lower the cost of the residency (this could include sitting weekly as an Open Studios Monitor)
I am interested in inquiring about financial assistance to lower the cost of the residency. I acknowledge that funding may not be available at this time.
The theme for this upcoming year is "Collaboration". C•A•R•Pers are expected (but not required) to participate in a show in January of 2027 where they will make 1-2 pieces inspired by JAC's longtime partner organizations. Is this something you would be interested in?

Experience
What is your experience with clay? Please list past skills you've learned and any other clay knowledge you may have. Your answer should be detailed enough so that we have an understanding of your knowledge and can assess your capability to work independently in the studio. Please keep this brief, no more than 250 words.
*
What kind of work do you make? Is it functional and/or sculptural? Wheel thrown and/or handbuilt? Why do you make the type of work you make? Your answer should give us a sense of your practice and make us excited about your work.
*
What JAC ceramics class(es) or workshop(s) have you taken in the past year, or plan to take before the start date of the residency, if any? (Note that while this has been a requirement in the past, it is not currently required.)
Please upload 3 images of ceramic work created in the last 3 years. These photos should be taken with a clean backdrop and with good lighting, as if you are accepted to the residency these photos will be used for promotional purposes. Label these photos FIRSTNAME_LASTNAME_NUMBER(1-3). Incorrectly labeled or unclean photos will not be accepted. Please see FAQ sheet for examples.
