Artist Residency Program
The School of Visual Art and Design at the University of South Carolina hosts an Artist Residency Program through our studio space inside of Stormwater Studios.
The SVAD Studio provides essential studio space for students, faculty members, visiting artists, and community members to develop new work, lead workshops, give educational talks, and host exhibitions. We’ve designed our studio to be an ideal working environment for visual artists to test new ideas and experiment with materials. Our studio space joins the flexibility of a workspace with the simplicity of a gallery to also meet our various exhibition and installation needs.
As a community-facing extension of the School of Visual Art and Design, we highly value different voices and experiences, and aim to enrich and contribute to the cultural vibrancy of the Columbia arts community.
