The School of Performance, Visualisation and Fine Arts at Texas A&M University has opened the New Work Development Artist Residency programme, 4 August to 4 October 2026. The school is committed to inspiring campus and community by incubating new works of art in an environment of creative reciprocity between scholars and artists that crosses, blurs and erases disciplinary lines.

The school was founded by three intrinsically interdisciplinary units: Dance Science (combining dance and the biological and health sciences), Visualisation (uniting the fine and visual arts with computer science) and Performance Studies (a conjunction of music and theatre drawing on anthropology and related humanities fields).

While this is a development residency, artists in residence will be expected to integrate their work into the life of the college, providing opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students to take part in their creative process and engaging with faculty and the wider campus community throughout the residency period.

The college will provide the selected artist in residence with:

10,000 USD stipend for living expenses and project materials
On-campus lodging (two bedroom/one bath apartment)
Shared office space and access to college facilities, including rehearsal and performance spaces, recording studios, visual art studios and technology resources as availa
