Recology San Francisco is thrilled to announce the recipients of the 2025 Artist in Residence (AIR) Program. The six professional artists are Michael Hall, Laurel Roth Hope, Miguel Novelo, Helia Pouyanfar, Trina Michelle Robinson, and Josué Rojas; the four student artists are Haley Mae Caranto (California College of the Arts), Elizabeth Estrada (UC Berkeley), Eleanor Scholz (San Francisco State University), and Daniela Tinoco (San Francisco State University). Part of the Sustainability Education Program, the four-month AIR residency provides a rich and immersive environment for artists to develop their practice while deeply engaging with sustainability and community outreach. Artists are trained to access materials from the Public Reuse and Recycling Area, work in an on-site studio, and speak with tour groups, creating meaningful opportunities to raise awareness about the transformative potential of creative reuse. Please join us in welcoming our next cohort of artists!

Our call for artists is now open for residencies in 2025! New this year, we will run our professional and student program applications concurrently, with both applications open June 1 - September 1, 2024. Please help us spread the word! Six professional artists and three higher education student artists will be awarded a four-month residency at the San Francisco Transfer Station. Unrestricted stipends ($1500/mo for professionals, $500/mo for students), access to discarded materials, a private studio space, and additional support will be provided. We encourage emerging, mid-career, and established artists working in all disciplines to apply. Artists' schedules are flexible and the program can accommodate those with full and part-time jobs, as long as artists in the professional program are in the studio 10-20 hours each week during standard work hours and are available to present to tour groups. Students are not required to be available for tours, but are asked to be onsite as much as possible during standard work hours. We do not accept applications from artists who reside more than a one-hour drive from the San Francisco Transfer Station. To apply, artists must attend an AIR Tour and apply through our slideroom application. The student application is free. Please note: If the $15 professional program application fee is a barrier to applying, email art@recology.com to request an exemption without impact to the application. For more information, please visit our Artist in Residence Program website. https://lnkd.in/ev3ysaCT https://lnkd.in/eQCds5hd https://lnkd.in/e5n96tAn

Our next art opening is next Friday, Saturday, and the following Tuesday! Come see professional work created entirely with discarded materials from the San Francisco dump.
