Summer at the Stew: Space for Emerging Artists to Grow
The Summer at the Stew Residency is an annual one-month residency held at my studio that provides a dedicated space for emerging and/or mid-career artists to deepen their practice, expand their portfolios, and facilitate their creative development. The one-month residency offers an opportunity to go deeper in work they may not otherwise be able to. The residency also provides visibility to emerging artists.
Following the residency, there is a fall showcase for the DC art community to learn about the selected artist’s work. The selected artist will also be featured in a variety of communications channels, including instagram posts and newsletter features.
Artwork produced during the residency has strengthened artists’ careers. Work produced during the residency has added to artists’ portfolios, helped them apply for future exhibitions and residencies, and has even been acquired by the DC Art Bank.
