Our Artist-in-Residence Programs provide printmakers with the opportunity to produce a body of work in a supportive atmosphere that fosters creative growth and development, for traditional as well as innovative printmaking techniques.
Printmaking Artist-in-Residence
Norwalk, CT
The Center for Contemporary Printmaking Solo Residency Program offers Artists-in-Residence the unique opportunity to live and work inside the specifically designed Helen Frankenthaler Printmaking Cottage. Over the course of our fast paced one to two week program, artists will dedicate themselves to a single project with the goal of completing that project before departing the residency.
Dresden Residency Exchange
Dresden, Germany
During this month-long, communal residency, artists work at Grafikwerkstatt Dresden, a professional fine art printmaking shop, a meeting place for contemporary artists, and a space to foster artistic collaboration. The pace is slower, and artists are encouraged to participate in cultural activities. Only current members of the Center for Contemporary Printmaking may apply, and applicants must be proficient in intaglio, lithography, or relief.
Past Residents
The Center for Contemporary Printmaking has had the honor of hosting dozens of talented artists since the residency program began in 2003. Meet some of our past artists-in-residence and watch recordings of lectures they presented to our community.
