The new residency program debuts a partnership between Morgan State University, a Historically Black College and University (“HBCU”) founded in 1867 in Baltimore, MD and expanding to Howard University (also founded in 1867) and the Truro Center for the Arts at Castle Hill (“Castle Hill’). Made possible by the vision and generosity of Nancy and Al Osborne in celebration of the 50th anniversary of Castle Hill, the program will bring young Black artists from Morgan State to Truro for residencies on Castle Hill’s historic Edgewood Farm campus.
The fellowships have been co-designed and will be jointly administered by Castle Hill and Jamal Thorne, Teaching Professor and the Media Art Program Coordinator at Northeastern University in Boston and Eric Briscoe, Professor of Art and Coordinator of Visual Arts at Morgan State.
The program began in Spring, 2022 with the first Osborne Fellows. We plan that it will grow as it develops. Housed at Edgewood Farm for two weeks in the fall and in the spring, each Fellow will be given a private room, a shared studio and access to all of the facilities and supplies of Castle Hill’s two campuses. We will introduce them to the rich arts community and resources on the Outer Cape and give them the freedom, space and time to make their work and begin the transition from academia to the community of working artists.
We plan on doing this twice a year, once in the Fall (October - December) & Spring (March - May)
Castle Hill will offer a $500 stipend plus travel to get to Truro, MA from Baltimore or DC + a food stipend.
