The UETF Program is pleased to announce that the City of Albuquerque Department of Arts & Culture was one of the recipients of the inaugural NM Economic Development Department Creative Industries Grant.
With these additional funds, the 2024 UETF Resiliency Residency Program will fund 20 artists in addition to 14 returning 2022 Resiliency Residency artists. The 34 artists, working in the Greater Albuquerque area, will be awarded $5,000 each.
The UETF Resiliency Residency Program encourages artists of all mediums and disciplines to play, experiment, research, and create. Projects are encouraged, but not required, to be completed at the end of the Residency period, and artists are invited to use the funds as part of a larger grant, as leverage to get more funding, as intermediary funding between larger project phases, or as they see fit to further their artistic practice.
The 2024 Resiliency Residency will include two new nonprofit organizations acting as Fiscal Sponsors: Working Classroom and Katharsis Media. You can learn more about them HERE.
The second iteration of the UETF Resiliency Residency Program will focus on building the Residency community more deeply with studio visits and regular face-to-face check-ins. The RR II will emphasize connecting smaller groups for potential collaborations, stirred conversation, and cross-disciplinary exposure. The 2024 cycle will also include Roundtables and Workshops from experts in the arts and arts administration fields to encourage connection and conversation between the awarded artists and other members of the Albuquerque arts community.
EXTENDED Deadline: Sunday, October 29, 2023 at 11:45 p.m.
You are also encouraged to reach out to Madrone Matishak with any questions about the program and/or application.
