Artist parents need time and space to create. And a platform to share their work!
In collaboration with Artist/Mother Podcast, Kinhouse seeks to provide a supportive environment and nourishing resources to help artists who are parents to thrive.
Two selected artists will receive:
– 1 month exhibition at our gallery (2 person show)
– a week long stay at our artist residency in Fort Wayne, IN (family friendly and to be used during the 2025 calendar year)
– an interview on the Artist/Mother podcast
– promotion and marketing of your artwork
– an opening reception on Friday, May 2nd, 2025
As artist parents ourselves, we understand the challenge and complexity involved when you are making art and raising humans. This exhibition and residency opportunity was created to respond to the need for emerging and mid career artists to have opportunities to make and show their work in inclusive spaces.
We welcome submissions from persons of all genders and backgrounds as long as you identify as a parent. Please submit work in its finished form. We recognize that the work submitted may not be what you end up exhibiting.
Exhibition opening will take place: Friday evening, May 2nd, 2025
Residency dates are flexible and can be scheduled any time during the 2025 calendar year
