ART CART: SAVING THE LEGACY is an interdisciplinary arts legacy project that
will connect aging professional artists with teams of advanced student
fellows to undertake the preparation and documentation of their creative
work, to help shape the future of our cultural legacy.

From artists who need help organizing their materials, to those who have
already documented some of their work, this project seeks to help put your
work in order for current and future generations. Artists will receive free
use of customized software, teamwork with two fellows from arts, health and
aging disciplines, and an honorarium for appearing in a public forum
connected to a public exhibition.

Professional visual artists will be eligible to apply if they:
a) Are age 62 or older;
b) Reside in the NYC metro area;
c) Have spent a lifetime making work;
d) Have selected a working partner for the project who commits at the time
of application.

How you can participate: email info.artcart@gmail.com for an application and
return by March 15.

This third NYC ART CART will take place from September 2015 through May
2016.
Once the application is reviewed, you will be contacted for a possible
studio visit. That visit will be followed by electronic submission of work
which will be juried by arts professionals. A total of 10 artists and 3
alternates will be selected by June 2015.
