Vizyon Atistik Residency ProgramVizyon Atistik Artist Residency is a new initiative that provides visual artists of Haitian descent an intimate space to showcase works or share integral aspects of their practice/works in progress for a duration of 6 weeks. Artists will be expected to facilitate public facing art making workshops and/or conversations with communities of their choice (Example: local residents, young kids, teens, adults, queer/non-binary identifying folx) and will receive assistance in developing and implementing workshops and talks with the Programs Associate. We encourage artists to view this opportunity as a way to receive feedback and/or generate conversation around an already existing body of work that they wish to expand or current works/projects in progress with the community. Timeline/Duration (each artist gets at least 6 weeks within the space) Autumn/Winter:
