Assess Yourself
Big Picture Tips

- Contact Arts
Learning Program Coordinator Chiquita Mullins Lee,
chiquita.mullins-lee@oac.state.oh.us, with any questions you have about the application process.
- Be thoughtful and thorough in submitting your application.
Assess Yourself
- Residency artists work in a variety of educational and community settings. Consider the environments that you like to work in and the people you like to engage in the creative process.
- Examine your artistic process and professional goals to determine your readiness to work as an artist in residence.
- Consider your professional artistic and educational work experience.
- Consider your ability to communicate about your art discipline and creative process with individuals of varying ages and experience.
- Evaluate your ability to plan, organize and follow through. Residencies demand realistic planning from organized and dependable artists.
- Determine minimum space and equipment needed to work in your art discipline.
- Explore possible ideas for residency activities. Ideas should be realistic for the residency time-frame and appropriate for selected participants.
- Begin to prepare publicity materials and educational handouts that will help sponsors understand your art discipline and creative work.
