Wave Hill Sunroom Project Space

The Sunroom Project Space is a venue for New York-area emerging artists to develop a site-specific project as a solo exhibition at Wave Hill. The two exhibition spaces for 2022 are the windowed Sunroom and Sun Porch in Glyndor Gallery. We are seeking artist projects that engage with the site, Wave Hill’s history, other aspects of the grounds, or surrounding communities.

Projects in any media will be considered. Four artists will be selected for solo exhibitions indoors. Selected artists will receive an honorarium of $2000, exhibition support, and professional development. Artists will have 6 to 12 months to develop their ideas and create new work.

Eligibility: Open to emerging artists with a record of achievement and potential, for whom this opportunity might contribute to professional advancement. Eligible artists must not be represented by a commercial gallery, not be a student, and not have previously shown at Wave Hill. Because we encourage artists to spend time at Wave Hill developing their ideas, artists should live within a 50-mile radius of the Bronx.

Please review the specifications of the spaces, including the photos and dimensions on our website: wavehill.org/discover/arts/opportunities.

An info session will be held virtually on July 9 from 12:30 – 1:30 PM. RSVP to visualarts@wavehill.org with subject line “Sunroom.”
