CALL FOR APPLICATIONS - SNAP Emerging Artist in Residence 2026 - 27

DEADLINE: June 30, 5pm MST.

Head to our website for the full call and submission guidelines!

The Emerging AIR Program offers emerging artists and recent graduates a studio space as well as an opportunity to work rent-free at the SNAP for a 4-month term. The culmination of each awarded residency is an exhibition opportunity. Each artist will have an opportunity to show the work that was made during their time at SNAP. This is a great way to encourage making and to celebrate each artist and their professional contributions to our community.

This residency is a self-directed opportunity intended for folks with intermediate printmaking experience. Artists should be engaging with media with which they have some hands-on familiarity, or seeking out mentorship opportunities before or during the early stages of their time at SNAP. If you have any questions about your eligibility, please reach out to communications@snapartists.com.

Next up from the 2 weekend Etching with B.I.G. workshop at SNAP - first time etcher(!) and artist @olivia_forsyth

Olivia fully embraced the etching and printing processes without hesitation.It was such a pleasure to see her apply the media to her imagery.When it came to colour she was game to explore both cool and warm ranges of the spectrum - and both beautifully activate her figures!

Over the next couple of days, I’ll be sharing colourful prints from the Etching with B.I.G. Workshop which took place at SNAP over two weekends at the end of April-early May.
It was exciting to see participants using a variety of ink application techniques to explore colour,hue, tone, shade and value.

First up, the dynamic duo of Janet Bertsch and Thorsten Creighton.They explored etching techniques such as aquatint, creating open image areas using coffee lift, and thinning B.I.G. to play with marbling on the plate surface.The later two were subsequently etched deeply.Janet and Thor then played with plate combos during printing to explore a range of hues, and their deep bites.
