Breaking Barriers

We believe Emerging Artists are the future of our art form and deserve a supportive, holistic, and happy place to grow. Our hybrid program focuses on delivering professional development, 9 months of financial support, and the environment that allows you to be the best artist you can be.

We’ve designed our program to reflect the changes we want and need to see in our sector. Artists who participate will experience the rich culture of the East Coast combined with support in every aspect of growth and learning for the whole of their residency.E
