The Velvetpark Residency offers a live-work studio in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, specifically for LGBTQ+ writers and visual artists. The residency alternates between writers in the winter/spring and visual artists in the summer/fall, providing a six-month term for residents to complete their proposed projects. Established by Velvetpark Media Inc., this residency is open to LGBTQ+ individuals from across the United States who are not currently enrolled in an academic program. The residency space is a 114 sq. ft. studio within Crown Studios, an artist building housing eleven other arts professionals. Residents are selected through an open application process and are required to have a primary residence elsewhere. The program aims to support and cultivate creative work by providing a dedicated space and a supportive community. While the residency does not offer a stipend, it covers the studio costs, requiring only a nominal application fee and a refundable key deposit. Velvetpark Residency is committed to fostering an inclusive environment, encouraging diverse artistic and literary expressions.
