The
"Artist in Residence Program" at Pacific Bridge is based
on the belief that cross-cultural exchange is the best way to promote
a more personal and insightful understanding between peoples of the
world. For artists from Southeast Asia the barriers to travel, be
they financial or political make firsthand experience of the United
States difficult if not impossible. The "Artist in Residence
Program" creates the opportunity for artists to join Pacific
Bridge for a four to six week residency. During this time the artists
stay at Pacific Bridge and have full access to our studios. During
their stay the artists have the opportunity to meet their contemporaries,
visit local museums and galleries, speak publicly about their art
and have an exhibition in the Pacific Bridge gallery.
