Artists in Residence

As a feature of the Fine Arts Center’s fiftieth anniversary season, all three visual arts spaces will host artists in residence.

Artists will spend the fall semester researching with UMass faculty in various departments, — including environmental studies, the library collections, and the UMass research institute Slavery North — studying works in the museum’s permanent collection, and engaging with students and the community.

Each residency will culminate in a solo exhibition this spring, blending academic inquiry with personal studio practice. More details will be shared about each exhibition closer to their openings in the spring.
