Overview
The Artists in Residence (AiRs) Program selects emerging or mid-career artists, activists, and cultural organizers for a year-long residency focused on community engagement and project-based learning. AiRs develop and execute detailed art projects that address relevant issues and engage the community. They participate in community events, lead workshops or public discussions, and collaborate with other artists and community members. The program includes workshop sessions alongside the Create Change Fellows, monthly cohort coaching sessions, and professional development mentorship. AiRs receive an honorarium of $18,000, a $10,000 production budget, and access to in-depth resources, including specialized materials, and advanced professional networks.
