SPORE’s Home-stay Artist Residency

SPORE’s Home-Stay Artist Residency invites individuals from across disciplines to explore community engaging projects along with the process of documentation, while living in a supportive co-housing environment with 2-3 other residents in South City St Louis.

Examples of projects might include site-specific installations, free school classes, objects, performances, diners, or collaborations. Projects will likely utilize the urban landscape and neighborhood. SPORE will serve as a support for idea execution and catalyst sharing the work.

The reality of this type of process is that residents will likely discover a situation that is immersive, familial, and at times challenging. For this reason, Home-Stay works to provide the best resources and opportunities for connections outside of our program. We ask that residents blog weekly and keep a personal daily journal in addition to their projects. Like many co-housing environments we host weekly check-ins.
