SUPERSTORM SANDY EMERGENCY RELIEF RESOURCES

NEW!!

La Napoule Art Foundation is holding a special residency for artists affected by the hurricane this fall.

Residency for Artists Impacted by Hurricane Sandy

Deadline: March 15, 2013

Residency Dates: October 8 – November 5, 2013

Location: Château de La Napoule, Mandelieu-La Napoule, France

Overview: La Napoule Art Foundation (LNAF) will offer eight artists affected by Hurricane Sandy a month-long residency. This program will bring together artists with diverse experiences of a shared event for reflection, exchange, and creation.

The storm impacted artists in a variety of ways. For many, Sandy created a financial and emotional burden from damaged studios, homes, materials, or artwork. For others, however, the effects of the storm were less tangible. This residency offers artists renewed inspiration after disruption to the creative process, or simply a place to process what they witnessed during the storm. The residency is open to all who experienced and felt the effects of Hurricane Sandy.

Provisions: LNAF will provide selected artists with a $1,000 stipend as well as housing, studio space, and most meals.
