Overview
AiR is a 16 week, non-live-in, studio residency in one of Columbus’s premier arts institutions, the Priscilla R. Tyson Cultural Arts Center and Columbus Performing Arts Center. Artists are chosen by a panel of juried applicants and awarded an unrestricted use $2000.00 stipend. The goal is for AiR to become part of the CAC or CPAC community by engaging regularly with and educating students attending classes, visitors, and tour groups. The focus is for AiR to develop a body of work in the artist’s discipline and share it through talks, demos, programs, workshops, outreach at CRPD community centers and an exhibition. At the successful completion of AiR, the artist has an opportunity to become a panelist for future AiR awards. AiR is expected to commit to the entire 16 week residency dates. No partial residency commitment will be accepted.
