The Museum for Art in Wood and NextFab launched in 2021, and we’re enthusiastic about the fifth session. We invite applications for the 2025 session from artists based in the Greater Philadelphia region who work in the material of wood with a commitment to sustainability. The residency will run from January 6 through March 6, 2025, and culminates in a solo exhibition at NextFab (1800 N. American Street) on March 13, 2025.

The Winter Residency Program is a collaboration between the Museum and membership-based maker space NextFab. Each year, the two organizations assemble a jury of makers and educators to award one fellowship to an artist in the region who works either solely in wood or other materials in combination with wood and demonstrates technical proficiency with woodworking equipment. The fellow receives a stipend for project materials and access to NextFab’s workshop space. Reflecting the Museum and NextFab’s support of environmental stewardship, reclaimed wood must comprise at least 50 percent of the fellow’s work during the residency.

The Winter Residency Exhibition will go on display at NextFab from March 13 to May 22, 2025. Following the exhibition’s opening, the Museum and NextFab will host an Artist Talk with the artist on March 14, 2025.
