DORF is proud to announce the inaugural season of 𝙁𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙗𝙤𝙬𝙡 𝙍𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙮 — our new invitational residency series transforming DORF’s gallery into a visible, working studio throughout Summer 2026.
This year’s inaugural residents are:
✨ 𝗔𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘀 (Austin, TX) June 1–27
✨ 𝗦𝗮𝗺 𝗠𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿 (Austin, TX) Aug 10–Sept 5
✨ 𝗞𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗧𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 (Houston, TX) Sept 8–26
Working across performance and experimental theater, these acclaimed artists will inhabit DORF’s gallery as an active studio, production hub, and public-facing site of creative exploration.
Each resident artist or collective receives a $2,000 unrestricted stipend, artist talk stipends, curatorial support, and ongoing access to the gallery. Throughout the residency, DORF will host weekly Open Studio hours every Saturday from 12–5 PM, welcoming the public into evolving works in progress.
DORF’s partner Carpenter Hotel (
@carpenterhotel ) is generously providing 3-weeks of complimentary lodging and pool passes for this season’s visiting artist, daily food and beverage stipends, 1-night stays for local artists and honorariums for artist talks and programming!
Named for DORF’s floor-to-ceiling glass walls, 𝙁𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙗𝙤𝙬𝙡 𝙍𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙮 invites audiences to witness artistic process unfolding in real time — where process becomes performance and the boundaries between private creation and public encounter dissolve.
