"It's important that we name the fractures
before moving towards healing."
Hosted by Inbreak and Dea Studios, the Inbreak Residency is a virtual co-learning and making environment that promotes a collective exploration of the intersections of art, faith, and race in the United States.
This residency is for artists of any medium who are looking for a collaborative environment to generate community-focused projects, who are seeking the next step in their artistic development, or who want to grow in the area of creative leadership.

"What we didn't know we had in common [was] our grief and mending." - Liberty Worth, 2021 Inbreak Resident
The residency culminates in a live or virtual exhibition.
There are four residency spots available each year.

Each cohort of residents explores a distinct residency theme (preselected by the Residency Team) in relation to the intersections of art, race, and faith.
Residents are invited to explore the residency annual theme by leading one or two projects:
1) (Required) A community-centered project that encourages collective participation through a creative process of the artist's choosing.
2) (Optional) An individual project featuring the artist's own artwork and art process.
Residents are encouraged to explore ways of combining their community and individual projects where possible.
Explore projects created by past Inbreak Residents for examples and ideas.
Thanks to a generous grant provided by the Presbytery of San Fernando, we are now able to offer $500 stipends for each resident. Residents may use the funds however they'd like, but each person will be responsible for covering his/her/their own book costs for the residency texts and any residency project costs.
There is no fee to apply to the residency.
