Artists in Rise is a platform centered around the artists of the artist residency network.
The artist residency network consists of thousands of programs worldwide that provide space, time, resources, and community to artists who are developing their career.
During residency, artists are able to research, experiment, collaborate and produce work without outside pressures. This type of experience can be restorative and nurturing for an artist's practice, allowing the artists to progress creatively and professionally.
​
Artists in Rise understands that the artists in this network are a vital part of our contemporary culture. Our vision is to create access and visibility to the residency network and to be a platform where these artists can be seen, researched, written about, and supported.
​
