KinoSaito Artist in Residence Open Call 2026

The KinoSaito Residency Program is a studio and residency program designed to provide artists with the space and time necessary to focus concentrated attention on any part of their practice they feel is ripe for development. For this A.I.R. Open Call program, we will host two artists for a one-time four-week session to be held November 8th – December 6th, 2026. The aim of this program is to ensure that practicing artists, their ideas, and their energy will be a constant presence at KinoSaito.

Each selected artist will be awarded a generously proportioned 900 sf studio located at KinoSaito in Verplanck, NY, with large windows and high ceilings, a loft living quarters, a kitchenette, and a private bathroom for the duration of their residency. KinoSaito provides a $1,500 stipend to the accepted artists to use at their discretion for living costs and supplies during their residency.

The selected artists will be chosen by a jury of arts professionals based on the quality of the submitted work and the artworks' alignment with KinoSaito’s mission.
