Art Omi: Artists invites artists, critics, and curators from around the world to gather in rural New York for a month-long residency (June 18–July 13, 2026) to experiment, collaborate, and share ideas. The program welcomes artists from all disciplines including visual arts, sound art, performance, and social practice who have been professionally active for at least five years (self-taught professional artists accepted). Two dozen international artists participate alongside critics/curators, with concentrated creative time balanced by cultural exchange and critical dialogue. The residency includes indoor and outdoor studio spaces, accommodations, all meals, and access to a Visitors Program connecting residents with NYC art world professionals including critics, curators, gallerists and established artists. Various fellowships are available offering travel grants and stipends ranging from $500-$2,000, including the American Dream Fellowship for first-time US visitors, Every Page Foundation Fellowship for female artists from underserved communities, and others for specific regions or communities. The residency culminates in an Open Studios event for the public.
