Summer Artist Residency at Dear.

Oceanside CA. 2025

This Summer Artist Residency is a community-funded residency that offers 90 days of studio space, access to shared workshops, and the chance to create alongside a supportive creative community.

As part of the residency, artists get a month-long gallery show with an opening night to share their work publicly.

We invite artists of all disciplines to apply—whether focused on a project or exploring new ideas—in a space built for connection and creativity.
