Replenish Residencies provides 1-2 week restorative visioning retreats to local BIPOC artists and culture bearers, the heart of New Orleans culture.

In light of the many racial disparities still present in our society at large and the arts economy specifically, we offer these residencies to provide time to rest and restore, vision, and create. The call is open to BIPOC artists and culture bearers from the Greater New Orleans who have not attended a residency before.

The Studio focuses on interrelated areas of programming, including residencies for artists and scholars, forest restoration, and science-inspired art engagement for children and adults. We center interdependence, wonder, care, and inclusivity in all of our work and believe the essential and transformative powers of art and the natural environment are central to a thriving future for all.

A full description including all important dates and application can be found here. Proposals are due March 13, 2024 and residencies will be awarded by May 8, 2024.
