Elsewhere, a living museum, residency and creative laboratory inside a former thrift store in downtown Greensboro, North Carolina, is now accepting applications and nominations from artists and creatives working across all media, fields and disciplines.
Elsewhere’s three-story museum offers an evolving environment that provides an experimental context for investigating material culture and developing new collaborative approaches. Elsewhere vitalizes its emerging downtown neighborhood and offers an exceptional place for re-thinking process and practice.
The Residency invites emerging individual and collaborative teams to apply for research and project residencies using the museum’s immense 58-year collection of cultural and material surplus.
Southern Constellations offers six paid fellowships for artists based in the Southern United States to participate in Elsewhere’s residency to create new, experimental works at the museum and participate in dialogues on the conditions of experimental art production in the South.
