Kala Art
以前私がお世話になったアーティストレジデンスからのメール。
是非是非、アーティストの皆様ふるって参加されてください。私がいったのはかなり前ですが、(汗)とてもよいところです。
プリントをされるかたには最高です!
I just received this email from one of the artists residencies i have attended. Please apply, if you are interested in! Even though, I went there pretty a long time ago. lol
This is a great residency especially for print makers including photography.

Hi Kiriko,
I hope this finds you well. As alumni of the Kala Fellowship program, I'm writing to ask for your help in spreading the word about the next fellowship call to the artists you know. We do our best to promote the opportunity through many official channels, but word of mouth still can't be beat! Your experiences and testimonials as artists who have been through the program are the best way for other artists to learn about the opportunity and know what it entails. Please find details to share below.
The Kala Fellowship award is an international competition open to artists from the U.S. and around the world. Artists producing innovative work in all mediums including printmaking, digital media, installation art, social practice, photography, and book arts are encouraged to apply. Fellowship Awards are given based on conceptual creativity, originality, and artistic excellence as well as technical knowledge.
The Kala Fellowship Award annually grants nine artists a cash award, unlimited access to Kala's facilities for up to six months, one Kala class, and a culminating show in the Kala Gallery. The award is geared towards supporting artists in completing specific projects or bodies of work that would benefit from Kala's specialized equipment in printmaking and digital media.
Once again, this year Kala has reserved one of the nine awards for a California artist living outside of a main metropolitan area with funding provided by The James Irvine Foundation. Artists from the North Coast, Central Coast, Central Valley and Inland Empire are eligible and encouraged to apply. We will also select one artist will be considered for a Kala Artist Project Space month, where their projects are developed in a studio space open to the public during their fellowship. This program is geared toward artists making work that is appropriate to develop onsite and engages the public in some form. Artists are given access to a 20'x25' project space for one month, in which time it is open to the public for viewing during normal gallery hours.
You can find more information about the Fellowship award and the application guidelines here.
The deadline is Friday, April 4, 2014.
Thank you in advance for helping us spread the word about this great opportunity! Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Warmly,
Carrie
