Residencies at the Joan Mitchell Center provide the crucial elements of time and space for artistic experimentation—while offering artists opportunities to engage with arts professionals, partner arts organizations, and others in the community. Eligible artists must either be based in New Orleans (for the last five years) or native to New Orleans, or be a former grant recipient of the Joan Mitchell Foundation based anywhere in the United States.
The residency application period for 2024 residencies was open from June 5 to July 31, 2023, and is now closed.
