AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

from Franklin Furnace

CEC ArtsLink, in the spirit of looking forward to in-person exchanges and travel again, announces two opportunities for US artists and curators to participate in international residencies with a focus on social and community engagement.

The Art Prospect Network Residencies
A new transnational exchange opportunity for US artists and curators, focusing on exchange and collaboration in the field of socially engaged art and/or public art. CEC ArtsLink will place US artists and curators with host organizations in the Art Prospect Network countries: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan. Each Art Prospect Network partner will host an artist or curator for a one month residency to participate in a collaborative project, such as a public art festival or event, lead training programs, and/or conduct an independent project. US participants and host organizations will work together to define the residency goals and structure based on their reciprocal interests, needs, and strengths.
