arts residency

An arts residency is a program that provides artists with dedicated time and space to focus on their creative work while often engaging with a community. During a residency, artists may receive financial support, studio space, and resources, allowing them to develop new projects or refine their skills. These programs can vary in length and often culminate in a public presentation of the artwork. Residencies encourage experimentation, collaboration, and personal growth, benefiting both the artists and the communities they engage with. Overall, they foster artistic innovation and cultural exchange.
