Artist-in-Residence/Artist Community Information

ADI is made up of two residency-based programs: The Affiliates program fosters the artistic development of U.S.-based, diaspora artists by providing them a wide array of services and non-financial resources over a sustained period of time. The Associates program specifically serves Brooklyn-based artists, providing them with access to artistic consultation, master classes, professional workshops, and other group and peer learning opportunities.

One of A.I.R. Gallery's outreach initiatives has been to create a National Membership of women artists from across the country. These women are mature professional artists or young women showing exceptional talent. This group of women artists forms a national network of support and opportunity for each other and for the New York-based member artists.

The publication addresses three critical issues in the field of artists’ communities: Fund Development, Building Community Within, and Community Engagement/Outreach. The report includes case studies of six artists’ communities, detailing the programs, fundraising ideas, and creative environments that have enabled them to thrive. In addition, the report gives a detailed and thought-provoking analysis of a membership-wide survey on community engagement--the challenges and opportunities it presents, and a vision for the future.

The 3rd Edition of this widely-praised directory has been revised and updated to include an index of 347 residency opportunities worldwide (50% more than the 2nd edition!), as well as comprehensive details on 95 residency centers.

A searchable website and database on the field of artist communities. By region and artistic discipline, as well as information on ADA and wheelchair accessible programs. http://www.artistcommunities.org/residencies.html

The result of two years of intensive research on the field of artist communities, this report provides information to help artists' community staff and boards manage, stabilize, fundraise for, develop, and market their organizations.

This publication provides introductory topical essays, how-to overviews, and dozens of standard and sample documents on nonprofit management in general and artists’ residency programs specifically. While the guide will be especially helpful for start-up organizations, it can also serve as a resource for established nonprofit programs, especially those evaluating their existing policies and documents. Available in print or electronic form.

Updated and expanded, this widely praised directory lists more than eighty residencies available to visual and performing artists, composers, and writers. Each listing includes complete contact information, the art disciplines served, facilities, housing, meals, season and length of residency, number of artists in residence, deadlines and fees, stipends and expenses, duties, programs, history and mission, and well-known artists who have been in residence.

Since 1981 the Artist-in-Residence Program has welcomed a roster of distinguished participants as well as artistic newcomers to live and work in Altos de Chavon. The program is also a rich resource for School of Design students, who benefit from the intensive workshops and gallery exhibitions presented by invited artists.

In cooperation with the Property Company Amsterdam (Woningbedrijf Amsterdam) the Fund carries out the Artists In Residence programme. In the long term this programme offers five artists of various disciplines the opportunity to live and work for a year in Amsterdam. Artists cannot individually apply for the Artists-in-Residence programme. They are selected by the Fund and/or by third parties. The most important criterion is the extent to which an artist is able to contribute to a vital art climate in Amsterdam. Not only with new works of art, but also with visiting lectureships, public readings or the counselling of Amsterdam artists.

Our basic focus is on statewide and national arts news, and opportunities for artists and arts organizations. Announcements about non-Commission-sponsored activities and opportunities are provided as a service. Published six times a year.
