Residency programs have become an essential component of the arts community, bringing hundreds of artists, curators and others to New York each year. apexart presents a discussion with program administrators, funders, and artists on the residency as an institution.
Why do we have residencies and what types of programs are most effective? Who do residencies serve, who should they serve? Why do artists seek out residencies, what are the expectations and what are the results? The panel will address these questions and related issues in a discussion that will be informative and engaging for residents and arts administrators alike.
