The nonprofit Burrard Arts Foundation (BAF) has revealed the names of the six Vancouver emerging artists chosen for its 2021 Residency Program.
In this program, artists can work from the BAF Vancouver studios for up to 14 weeks during their residencies, which are tailored to each individual. The BAF provides resources and support, including a materials budget, multimedia production, and a solo exhibition in the adjacent gallery space for the work completed during the residencies.
BAF founder and director Christian Chan explained in a news release that the program, which is supported by the Chan Family Foundation and the City of Vancouver Cultural Grants Program, aims to ensure “art is accessible, relevant, and approachable” for Vancouver audiences.
