Our artist residencies are rooted in a collaborative, intergenerational, and participatory model where artists, cultural workers, CBOs, and neighbors can come together to address critical issues impacting our lives. Our residencies center BIPOC artists involved in movement building in order to create viable, financially beneficial leadership opportunities for historically excluded artists.

The ACE fellowship invites Youth Fellows transitional-age young leaders (16-24 years) to join in civic engagement efforts to mobilize people power, amplify the public issues that they care about and create empowering and life affirming narratives and campaigns centering gender expansive youth.
