Winter Workspace Program 

Session 1: January 6 – March 2, 2025

Session 2: March 3 – April 27, 2025 

Wave Hill is pleased to announce the 13 artists participating in the 2025 Winter Workspace residency program. Winter Workspace offers two, back-to-back, eight-week sessions for New York-area artists to develop and create work informed by the site, ecology and history of Wave Hill. Artists are encouraged to expand their practices using resources from the garden, including access to Wave Hill’s thriving plant collections, horticultural and curatorial staff, history, architecture and visitors. Session 1 of the 2025 residency begins Jan 6. 

Now in its 16th year, Winter Workspace has supported more than 165 emerging and mid-career artists with studio space and funding. Wave Hill is proud to be counted among New York's prestigious and established artist residencies. As the artists themselves affirm:

"The time allowed to experiment in a new space was extremely valuable."

"Wave Hill's residency uncovered a desire and (self) permission for contemplation." 

"I had no idea how much I needed the Wave Hill residency until I showed up for it... The reward is a physical and mental spaciousness that is nearly impossible to achieve as a working artist in NYC. The residency was a gift."
