Description

The Tombolo Artist Residency is your opportunity to collaborate with Tombolo: we will design shirts based on your artwork as you work towards a solo exhibition that we host in New York City. The residency culminates in a solo show in New York City where Tombolo will take 0% commission; along the way, we will create at least two unique Tombolo shirts from your work, from which you will receive royalty payments for each shirt sold. We will also provide a stipend and marketing exposure via Tombolo's channels, and mentorship from Tombolo's founders. The Artist will be provided with a stipend of $3500 for the ~7 months of the residency from May to December; while presence in New York City is encouraged, the residency can be done remotely. The Artist will use this time to create work for a solo show to take place in New York City in January or early February 2026. During the residency, we will design a minimum of two shirts together. The Artist will receive royalties from every shirt sold.
