MIFA provides 24 indoor studios at prices that are significantly below the market average, making them accessible to artists of all financial backgrounds. The monthly rent for these studios ranges from $500 to $1500. Moreover, the organization is actively seeking grants to offer complete or partial scholarships to artists who demonstrate financial need, further easing the financial burden.
After a year of residency, the artist can apply for a curated solo show in the institution. We can guide you in the process of finding a renowned curator.
