The Roman J. Witt Residency Program supports the production of new work at the University of Michigan.

Witt Residents receive an honorarium of $20,000 for up to twelve weeks in residence served over an academic year. In addition to the honorarium, residents will be provided with housing, studio space, and up to $5,000 funding support for project materials. The School encourages applications from individuals as well as from creative teams. The residency will take place between September 2024 and April 2025, and will consist of a making period of up to 12 weeks in residence during the 2024 – 2025 academic year, followed by an exhibition period.

The Witt Residency is open to both established and emerging artists/ designers. The residency provides students an alternate learning opportunity to engage with practicing artists/ designers who can make use of resources across campus, therefore the ideal candidate must value collaboration, have good social and communication skills and be interested in generating creative partnerships across disciplines. It is the goal of the Witt Residency to foster an atmosphere of inventive creative activity that extends throughout the University community.
