Application Portal Now Open

We are pleased to announce that the application portal for the Speculative Play and Just Futurities Residence is now open. We are currently accepting applications for Fall 2023 and Spring 2024. We will begin reviewing applications for Fall 2023 on May 25.

Residencies last for one month and come with a stipend of $5000. Flights and housing will be provided, and residents will have an $800 budget to support their work, which they can use for materials, equipment, or honoraria for community partners.

Each resident will be expected to develop a scholarly or creative output over the course of their residency. This could be a traditional output, such as a series of poems or an article, or it could be an experimental work of narrative in a non-traditional mode such as VR or a game.

While in residence, individuals will develop a work, which they will discuss at a public presentation during the third or fourth week of their residency. Because we recognize that many scholars and creators will need more time than a month-long residency to complete their work, we have set aside a budget to invite all residents to return after six months so that they can present their final projects.
