500 Capp Street

San Francisco, United States

The 500 Capp Street International Artist Residency hosts artists in The David Ireland House in San Francisco’s Mission District for a focused period of research and making, culminating in an exhibition. Residents may live or work in the House and access the Paule Anglim Room and David Ireland Archive, receiving curatorial guidance throughout. The residency emphasizes concept-driven practices and welcomes international and U.S.-based artists, with strong interest in sculpture and ideas aligned with David Ireland’s philosophies. Public programs may include installations, interventions, and community-facing events. The House offers elevator access to living quarters and wi‑fi. Partners may stay briefly by arrangement; the House is not suited to families or pets (service animals permitted).
