ABOUT THE TOMBOLO ARTIST RESIDENCY

Tombolo's Artist Residency Program offers the chance for emerging artists to have their artwork feature on Tombolo shirts. Tombolo offers a stipend, mentorship, and a (zero commission) NYC exhibition at our flagship store -- along with the opportunity to collaborate on two custom shirts: one inspired by an existing work and a second inspired by a piece created during the Residency itself. The artist also receives a royalty tied to shirt sales.

We choose an annual residency winner. Explore all the details and the application here.
