Highpoint Center for Printmaking proudly announces that the Jerome Foundation has agreed to sponsor two additional years of the Emerging Printmakers’ Residency program. The residency running from September 2007 to May 2008 will soon culminate with the work of artists Pamela Carberry, Andy Morien, & Kirsten Peterson. Their work will be featured in an exhibit from May 30–July 5, 2008.
The next round of artists, starting in July 2008, will receive access to HP’s fully-equipped print shop, plus technical support, critiques with arts professionals, and the opportunity to work in a collaborative environment that encourages experimentation and personal artistic growth. The nine-month residency culminates in a February 2009 group exhibit in which the Jerome Residents will share their new work with the community. Applications for the 2008–2009 residency are due June 2, 2008. The newest group of artists will be announced at the end of June.
The 2006–2007 Residency artists Brian Aldrich, Emmy Lingscheit, & Jon Renzella comment on the residency program:
“I had an excellent experience as one of Highpoint’s Jerome Fellowship Residents. Working with and meeting Highpoint’s staff and co-op members was very rewarding as well as being able to use Highpoint’s excellent facilities.”
“This residency has been a very valuable experience and I regard it as a personal milestone. While providing technical assistance and encouragement, it also provided the pressure I needed to focus my work, set goals for myself, and concentrate on creating a body of work.”
“Having this opportunity directly after graduating from school served as a helpful transition from an academic to professional mindset.”
