The MOM Art Annex Residency Program is open to those students, artists, and scholars engaged in the study of women, mothers, reproductive identities, and families from an interdisciplinary and multicultural perspective. MoM conducts remote residencies.
THE FIRST STEP TO JOINING OUR RESIDENCY PROGRAM IS TO BECOME A MoM MEMBER WITH AN INDIVIDUAL MEMBERSHIP: JOIN MoM NOW
REMOTE RESIDENCIES: Remote residencies are open to all participants, local and international wising to work with MoM in a supportive setting. Participants are guided through their residency process by working closely with a MoM staff person on a specific project. As part of this process, a featured exhibit or piece of writing are exhibited online at MoM. Most remote residencies take place from one month to one academic semester.
Applicants & Expectations
Applicants must go through a vetting process in order to best determine compatibility with the guest artist or academic residency program. We are looking for valuable, longterm relationships to invest in. Therefore we request the following from our Residency Participants:
- Become a MoM Member in good standing. [Links are embedded]

Post Residency Survey
REMOTE RESIDENCY APPLICATION:
THE MOM RESIDENCY HAS BEEN INSTRUMENTAL FOR MY ARTISTIC DEVELOPMENT THROUGHOUT THE PAST YEAR. THE MOM ART ANNEX IS INSPIRING AND REVOLUTIONARY IN ITSELF: HISTORY AND ART ABOUT MOTHERHOOD THAT REFLECTS AND VALIDATE MY EXPERIENCES. THE RESIDENCY IS ART-IVISM IN ACTION, NAMELY, THE TIME AND SPACE TO BE AN ARTIST AND WRITER FIRST AND FOREMOST. AWAY FROM THE DAILY LIFE OF MOTHERHOOD, TWO WEEKS AWAY FROM MY CHILDREN AND PARTNER, AWAY FROM LUNCHES, AND PICKUPS AFTER SCHOOL. I AM DEEPLY GRATEFUL FOR MY TIME HERE.
