Expand access and opportunities to diverse artists

Your contribution supports our residency program that prioritizes artists who have been overlooked or excluded from traditional residency systems, helping diversify voices in environmental discourse. The residency is designed to provide time, space, connection, and financial support for artists to pursue ambitious environmentally rooted projects.
