UNITED STATES

Artist's Residences in Santa Fe (on-going)

The changes wrought by the terrible events of September 11, 2001 are still becoming visible. The arts community has, like every other area of life, been deeply affected by the terrorism and its aftermath. In response to the horrors and destruction in New York City and Washington, D C, we at the Santa Fe Art Institute would like to contribute to the support and normalization of life in America. The Santa Fe Art Institute is offering two to four week residencies in beautiful, quiet residence spaces with studios as respite for artists whose living spaces or studios have been compromised by the terrorism. The residencies are available during the fall and winter at no cost to the artists.

Please send a letter (and slides if possible) to: The Santa Fe Art Institute, 1600 St Michaels Drive, Santa Fe, NM 87505 Or email to:mailto:%20info@SFAI.org
