Artists should work with or be inspired by found or family photographs to attend to this program and can work in any medium. The ability to collaborate and interact in English is preferred as the program will be conducted in English, however, we do not want this to be a limiting factor to your participation and will work on solutions if the need arises.

    Artists will go through an application process to ensure that this program is a good fit for every participant who joins this cohort. The application form is simple and can be filled out quickly.
