The Nicholson Project is a nonprofit artist residency program coupled with a neighborhood garden that works to support artists and serve as a creative and innovative cultural hub. Since opening, we have paid over $300,000 directly to artists plus significant additional funding to support artist-created projects.
Our mission is to support, provide opportunities, engage, and amplify artists and creatives from our community and the local artist community—particularly artists of color and those from Ward 7 and 8—while engaging our neighbors through community-based programming. Our vision is to serve as a community anchor celebrating Ward 7’s authentic identity while infusing new vibrancy into Southeast DC.
