The Gallery at Mercer County Community College (MCCC) is seeking artists for our bi-annual residency program that fosters artistic exploration and collaboration.

Four residencies will be awarded, each lasting three weeks in the Spring Semester of 2027 - two residencies designated for Mercer County artists, and two residents from outside the county. Residents will be assigned one out of our two gallery side spaces to create an exhibition or performance-based project.

Artists will have the unique opportunity to showcase their work co-currently with another resident in the mirroring space. During the residency, artists are required to collaborate with MCCC students and staff on their project and conduct workshops in the main gallery space.

The Gallery at MCCC welcomes proposals in all media, including (but not limited to) painting, sculpture, installation, performance, photography and video.

Interested artists should send their portfolio (five to ten images), artist resume, artist statement, project proposal and application fee of $35 dollars on our application portal linked here.
