#ResidenciesConnect Growing Your Backyard: Relationship-building and Networking Between Artist Residency Programs

 

 

We’re listening: it’s exhausting to operate in silos. 

How do we pause, and look at our own backyards with fresh eyes for new partners, and plant seeds around the globe reaching out to new contacts? We all ask, how can we afford to take the time away from the daily fires to nurture longer term relationships? Today, we realize; we can’t afford not to. Our networks are what can sustain us through the crises, offer insights we didn’t know we could ask for, and the support we need.  

Grab a beverage and join us and other ACA members for a session focused on growing our local and international networks, and settle in for a lively chat as neighbors. 

Staff Suggested Beverage Pairings:
Iced Genmaicha (Japanese green tea with toasted rice) - Dani (Director of Programs)

Rose Black Tea - Crystal (Programs Coordinator) 

All staff of ACA members residencies, organizations, and programs gain access to #ResidenciesConnect. In these robust thematic networking sessions, participants convene in virtual breakout rooms sparked by an opening presentation, rooted in field current hot topics. These sessions provide an opportunity for members to learn from, share with, and build community with peers.
