Singapore Art Museum's (SAM)

Singapore, Singapore

Singapore Art Museum's (SAM) Residencies program is a dynamic and fully funded initiative designed to support the development of innovative artistic and curatorial practices while engaging with global discourses. Situated in Singapore, the program is open to local and international artists, curators, art organizations, and community and education-focused practitioners. It offers four distinct types of residencies: Artist Residency, Community & Education Residency, Curatorial & Research Residency, and EX-SITU: Art Spaces Residency, each fostering different aspects of artistic engagement and public interaction. SAM Residencies encourages residents to experiment and interact within a studio-based setting, providing a platform for dialogue, collaboration, and public engagement. Residents are provided with travel, a monthly stipend, housing allowances for international participants, studio or co-working spaces, and an ‘ideas lab’ for conceptual developments. This initiative not only supports the practical needs of artists but also integrates them into a vibrant community where they can influence and contribute to local and global art conversations. The program’s structure emphasizes self-direction with institutional support available through resources, expertise, and network-building opportunities. Public interactions are highly encouraged through presentations, open studios, and workshops, enhancing the communal and educational impact of the residencies. SAM aims to foster a hub of creative exchange that benefits both the residents and the broader community, reinforcing Singapore’s position as a nurturing ground for contemporary arts.
