In the organiser's words
Quoted from massmoca.org and checked on 3 September 2026. This is the organiser's description, reproduced as captured. It has not been through the evidence checks that produced the figures above.
Since 2015, the Studios at MASS MoCA residency program has hosted over 1,200 artists and writers at all career stages, income levels, and geographic locations on its North Adams campus surrounded by the beautiful Berkshire Mountains. The Studios at MASS MoCA runs year-round, hosts up to 10 artists at a time for stays of 2 or 4 weeks, and primarily seeks applications from visual artists (painters, sculptors, installation artists, photographers, video/new media artists, fiber artists, printmakers, etc.) and writers in all literary disciplines.
Artists from around the world are encouraged to apply. The residency program has several different fellowship programs. For more information, please visit our Applying and Financial Aid page.
The money, to scale
