TNT Residency

New York, New York, United States

Tiger Strikes Asteroid New York and Transmitter Gallery offer the TNT Residency, a 6-month fully funded program for professional working artists, both national and international. This residency provides a 430 square foot studio space adjacent to both galleries, culminating in a solo exhibition or open studio event. It prioritizes underrepresented artists and those creating works not typically viable in traditional commercial markets. The residency includes a $250 honorarium and professional installation shots. Artists from all educational backgrounds are encouraged to apply, with work from artists across the United States and internationally welcomed. Housing is not provided, so residents must secure their own living arrangements in New York City. The selection process includes studio visits and a submission fee, with fee waivers available to support operating expenses of the volunteer-run galleries. Residents will have access to a private studio and are required to use the space a minimum of 20 hours per week.
