Casey Droege Cultural Productions (CDCP) in partnership with Headwater Media is pleased to host a call for applications for the next two rounds of Pedantic Arts Residency (Pedantic).
Pedantic is seeking applicants for creatives and researchers to participate in the Summer 2025 and Winter 2026 terms for residencies of four weeks. Pedantic continues its mission of re-embracing the impact that education, study, and contemplation can have on artistic output by interconnecting creators, organisers, and critics. As the programme seeks new residents whose practices engage visual arts, curation, and writing, this unique opportunity invites rich cross-disciplinary dialogue and collective, exploratory immersion within Pittsburgh’s artistic and cultural landscape.
Each resident’s programme will include facilitated access to Pittsburgh’s creative community, professional development opportunities, tickets and passes to Pittsburgh institutions and events, and free time for individual pursuits and creative production.
Residents will be assigned to a Pittsburgh-based guide working in a similar field who will help create a schedule, offer suggestions for activities, and connect the resident to a network of local professional contacts. They will be in touch with residents both prior to and during the residency stay.
Applicants (18 or older) must be non-Pittsburgh residents at the time of application.
Residents will receive free furnished housing (one bedroom and bathroom are ADA-compliant, and there is an elevator) and a 2,000 USD stipend.
