Artist Parents Community + Residency

An inclusive community of artists who are also parents or caregivers. Challenging the myth that caring for others is a death knell for your art practice and career.

Life experience as parents/caregivers has value and informs creative practice in unique and important ways. This must be part of the conversation around sustainable careers in the arts. What is learned as caregivers should be celebrated instead of hidden.

Since the project launched in 2023, it has provided free studio space to six artists in residence, hosted more than 20 meetups, and curated three exhibitions of our community member’s artwork.
