Overview

Since 1979, School 33 Art Center's Studio Artist Program has provided exceptional studio spaces at subsidized rates to more than 120 professional artists. Nine prime spaces (approx. 450 sq. ft. each) are available to local artists. The Studio Selection Panel, comprised of local artists and arts professionals, selects resident artists through a review process. This program has been instrumental in providing a safe, nurturing community and workspace to both established and emerging artists in Baltimore. School 33 has also hosted a variety of artist residencies and programs that engage the studio artists in the Center's exhibition and educational programming. Beginning in late 2008, School 33 has initiated the Studio Artists’ Mentoring Program as a commitment to fostering artistic growth in Baltimore.

Studio leases are for one year and rental rate includes utilities. The studios are strictly non-live spaces, though artists-in-residence have 24 hour access to their individual spaces. At the end of the first year current Studio Artists may be invited to re-apply for a second and third term.

After the initial impact of the image or shape, I want to draw the viewer in to see the work up close. Differing from traditional minimalism, I try to create a more personal and organic, yet minimalist image. I strive for an...

Michelle Dickson An awareness of the temporal is woven into nearly every conceptual and process-oriented aspect of my work. I often evoke a single moment that has been paused, while multiple layers of information unfold on a seemingly different plane of time. This relates to the process of remembering, as the body is paused in the present while the mind enters...

Jordan Tierney As an artist who combines wood carvings with salvaged materials, I have a need for and an interest in resourcefulness. I like to learn from people who are inventive with whatever is at hand. For a while now I have been thinking about an idea I call ‘Urbanautica’. The courage and resourcefulness it took to go to sea before there...

James Williams My paintings in the past have focused on themes such as cultural identity and social relationships, but currently I am constructing comic book-like narratives that explore childhood nostalgia and early U.S. pop culture. As a child, my friends and I were active dreamers. On any particular Saturday afternoon you would find us swept away by our...
