This residency took me away from the familiar, the known, and my usual “habits”. It also delivered me to a safe place to dwell, to find a more authentic involvement, a deeper level of engagement…. It’s not just about time, and it’s not just about the community of artists, rather it’s the historical weight and energy that makes this place what it is. The residency has provided the safe harbor to think and reflect, the space to conduct my research and execute work, and the positivity and support of an incredible staff to fuel my future.

Nearly 20 leaders from new, emerging, and established residency programs gathered at 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica. The conversations included some practical tips on working with artists from outside the U.S., consortium funding for the field, and “Artists’ Communities in International Society,” led by Michelle Satter of the Sundance Institute.
