Enter Text is an international residency program for writers, researchers and artists working with text. The program brings together a diverse group of writers and artists from various backgrounds, with different ways of applying text and language in their work.

At Arteles, artists are given the freedom to create and deepen their focus in a stress-free environment. Share ideas and approaches, form collaborations and gain fresh perspective to your usual practice, without the pressure of producing a finalized body of work.

As well as for connecting and experimenting with other writers & artists, the residency can be used for concentrating intensively on your ongoing work/research, starting a brand new project, or stopping to contemplate your practice and being. Participation in group activities is voluntary, allowing you to barricade into your writer's chamber anytime you want.

Space and Time Artist Residency at Guttenberg Arts provides artists with a $1,200 USD stipend to cover material, travel, and housing in conjunction with 24/7 shared access to a 4,500 sq ft. professionally equipped workspace for the visual arts including printmaking, dark room and ceramics for three months in Guttenberg, New Jersey. Artists will also be given a one month final group show as well as studio visits from accomplished professionals from the art world. Each artist is required to give a free and open to the public artist lecture or workshop towards the close of their three month residency. We highly recommend a site visit to our building. Artists are selected by a blind jury of arts professionals on the merits of their work.

Artist in Resident participants are expected make a serious commitment to the program for the entire three-month session and to utilize the studio actively and consistently (on average artists are in the studio 20 hours per week, minimum). In addition, artists are required to participate in a final group exhibition, plus give an artist talk or give one free workshop open to the public (this can be at the studio or at a local community center). It is vital to the success of the program that Artist in Resident participants fully take advantage of the unique resources we are able to provide. For this reason, Artist in Resident participants cannot simultaneously participate in another residency or degree-granting program while participating in Guttenberg Arts Space and Time Artist Residency.
