About
Fountainhead Residency in Miami provides artists with a supportive environment to create and engage with the local cultural landscape. Each month-long residency includes introductions to nationally recognized curators, collectors, and gallerists for one-on-one studio visits, offering mentorship and insight. Residents receive roundtrip airfare, accommodations, a stipend, and access to local museums, collections, and galleries. The residency includes opportunities to connect with legal, financial, and business consultants for entrepreneurial guidance. Artists live and work communally in a 1950s home in the Morningside neighborhood, surrounded by lush tropical foliage. At the end of each month, Fountainhead hosts public events to showcase the artists’ work. The program supports artists financially through sales of their work, with proceeds funding artist stipends and programs.

Fountainhead residency is really special because of the deep connections and knowledge Kathryn has to the Miami Art world. My tip is to get up early so you can go to the beach.
It is a public relations opportunity, not really a residency, especially since artists with gallery representation or sellable work are highly encouraged to attend. Making new work was difficult because most of your time is dedicated to visiting collectors. For some artists without connections that might be very helpful.
