asld visiting artist of color residency

Committed to creating a place for artists to thrive, ASLD’s Residency Programs provide financial support, studio space, and exhibition opportunities for selected artists to immerse themselves in their practice and connect with ASLD’s community. In exchange, ASLD’s constituents across the Denver metro region can engage with and learn from visiting and local artists through an extended engagement. The Visiting Artists of Color (VAC) Residency is for a visiting artist who identifies as (or whose work connects with) Black, Indigenous, and/or person of color (BIPOC) with the goal to increase the visibility and provide resources to support historically marginalized artists.

The VAC Residency is a 7 month long residency for a visiting artist who identifies as BIPOC and/or who is committed to working with local BIPOC community members. Each residency is tailored to the selected artist’s expertise and discipline.
