I attended a lively panel discussion this Wednesday about the development of contemporary art in the Caribbean.
This month we had the chance to take the plunge into the exciting things that are happening with art in The Bahamas.
After much anticipation, obsessive watching of the clock as donors generously gave, being hopelessly attached to our devices (iPad, iPhone, laptop) and getting very little sleep...
we raised over $15,000!
More exploration into the world of artist residencies led us to The Banff Center. Art centers and residency programs come in a huge variety of sizes from single cabins to acres and acres, and The Banff Center leans into that second category.
Along with launching our Indiegogo campaign, December has been chock full of more research as we fine tune our program to fit the restrictions of an island. We had the privilege of touring two fine establishments with wildly different approaches.
