What are artist residencies?

Artist residencies are programs that give artists time and space to focus on their artistic work. 

Each residency is unique. Some programs offer studio spaces and production facilities. Others focus on research and collaboration. Some involve international travel; others are online. But in general, residencies can be vital resources for artists who are in search of inspiration, community, and career opportunities.
