Something special happens in these places. At times I come with an empty slate; I cast aside every preconceived plan and just see what happens. In other instances I come with deadlines. Always I come away with something beyond what I could have imagined.

Field at a Glance: Artists Residencies in the US

Author: Alliance of Artists Communities
Published: April 2009

A report on the field of artists' communities and residency programs in the US, conducted July-September 2008. The goal of this report is to provide artists’ residency programs with information that places each program in a broader context and demonstrates the impact of the field nationwide. This summary compiles responses from 131 residency programs in the US to offer a snapshot of the field. The report also touches on important trends, such as the shift from rural residencies to many more urban residencies, as well as the economic impact of residencies.
