Since 2015, SixTwelve has conducted a residency exchange program, providing opportunities for creative people from Oklahoma City, Savannah, GA and Chicago, Illinois. (Click here to see some of our past residents!) This year, we’re opening up the applications to anyone in the United States, with the intention of creating a web of residency exchanges!

Our vision for this program is to provide more opportunities and experiences for creative people in the areas of art, music, film, dance, writing, cooking, farming and more and to serve the communities of Oklahoma City, OK and Savannah, GA. SixTwelve provides a place for residents to live (if the resident isn’t local), a stipend for time, materials & travel, and connections to organizations and people within the residency city. In turn, the resident completes a body of work for themselves, gives something to the community where they are located (usually working with children or adults) and meets a need of SixTwelve, so if you’re interested in applying, dream big about what you’d like to give this universe. We’re here to support you in any way that we can, and hopefully the opportunity to work in another community will widen your reach and visibility, creating more opportunity for you and a stronger bridge between Oklahoma City and Savannah or, now, whatever state you are from!
