Artist in Residence Program       

Art Produce residencies include visual and performing arts and event/temporal based work that activates the neighborhood and generates community engagement.  Residencies are project based and last 1 to 4 months.  Artists have created site-specific participatory works that involve community members, businesses and the public in multi-generational cultural experiences, social aesthetics, and community activism. 
​
The annual AiR program runs from March through September. Applications are open beginning in December and are due in early January.
