Welcome to the tallest, smallest apartment for Artist Residencies: the Kallenberg Artist Tower (KAT)! Located at the Central ARTSTATION, the home of the Shreveport Regional Arts Council and center for the presentation, exhibition, performance, creation of and education about the Arts, the KAT is located at 801 Crockett Street in Downtown Shreveport in the heart of Shreveport Common, destined to become the destination for UNexpected, Unprecedented, UNabashed, experiences that form an UNcommon Cultural Community.

The Shreveport Regional Arts Council offers an annual week-long “KAT” Residency for a Visual Artist, a Performing Artist, and a Literary Artist. The selected Artists will be awarded a one-week Retreat/Residency in the KAT, with its unique architecture and historical significance. The apartment is fully equipped with a stocked kitchen, 1.5 baths, a queen-sized bed, living room, and a rooftop that provides a panoramic view of downtown Shreveport and the Shreveport Common neighborhood. Each floor of the KAT is a separate room… there are five floors and a rooftop; there is not an elevator. The stairs are quite manageable; however, each element of the space is on a different floor.
