MASS MoCA's Early Application opportunity provides extended lead time for artists who need advance planning for their residency stays, with announcements made 9-15 months before sessions. This application track is designed for artists confident in securing external funding or paying full rate, making it easier to apply for grants from employers or arts councils. Artists applying through this route are not eligible for MASS MoCA's financial aid.
