RRASP RESIDENCY PARTNERSHIP:
A New Program By RRASP
Introducing RRASP New Residency Partnership Program
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of RRASP’s Residency Partnership, a new initiative that offers nonprofit organizations in the creative visual arts field dedicated studio space and resources to develop and share their work with the public. This partnership empowers nonprofits to expand their missions, engage new audiences, and foster meaningful creative exchange within the Rockella community.
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The RRASP Residency Partnership Program is designed for arts-focused non-profits, collectives, and community organizations seeking temporary space to host workshops, exhibitions, and public programs. By offering free, short-term studio or gallery space within Rockella’s buildings, RRASP provides partners the opportunity to test new ideas, expand their reach, and engage with diverse creative communities in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens.
In addition to space, RRASP supports Residency Partners with marketing outreach through our newsletter, social media platforms, and on-site signage. We ask that all partners provide professional documentation of their programming and acknowledge RRASP and Rockella Space as supporters across all promotional materials.
Collaboration That Sparks Growth
This program is structured as a true exchange: while we provide a platform and physical resources, we also seek to learn from our partners’ expertise.
Many Residency Partners bring valuable knowledge in areas such as non-profit leadership, grant writing, fundraising, and community engagement—insights that strengthen our own programs and benefit the broader Rockella/RRASP ecosystem.
The Residency Partnership Program is ideal for organizations looking for a temporary home to activate meaningful programming, and for those committed to collaboration, transparency, and knowledge-sharing. Together, we can create spaces that empower both artists and audiences while building sustainable models of support in the arts.
