Resettlement Assistance & Residency Program

Resettlement Assistance & Residency Program

At-risk artists who experience forced displacement and relocation typically arrive in a new city suddenly and unexpectedly, without resources, a plan of action, or a community to act as a safety net upon arrival. They have often experienced trauma in conjunction with their displacement. As a result, for most at-risk artists, it takes time to re-stabilize.  

Our Resettlement Assistance program guides at-risk artists as they navigate the relocation process, and provides support as they reestablish themselves professionally. 

Our Resettlement Assistance program includes:
