MUSEUM SEEKS 2023 ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE

KENNEBUNK –The Brick Store Museum is pleased to announce the Bauman Artist-in-Residency for 2023, an initiative funded through the generosity of the Bauman Family Foundation. This fund allows the Museum to sponsor a guest artist for the summer months to spend time with the Museum’s collections and create new works from their inspiration.

The Museum is seeking an artist to create a work of art that reflects the diverse history and cultures of Kennebunk through any art medium. The selected Artist will earn a Residency stipend for their contributions to forwarding our community’s arts & humanities learning. Applicants can learn more about the opportunity and find the application on the Museum’s website, www.brickstoremuseum.org.

The Artist-in-Residence will hold the position for three months and is expected to produce a Final Project (work of art, play, piece of music, etc.) to be accepted into the Museum’s collection and offer at least one public program (i.e. workshop or program based on specialty). During the Residency, the artist will contribute to the Artist Blog on the Museum’s website.

Artists in all media (painting, illustration, writing, poetry, sculpture, performance, music, etc.) are eligible to apply. Please apply to the Residency Program by April 30, 2023 by using the application form on the Museum’s website at www.brickstoremuseum.org/education/artistinresidence. For questions, please contact Museum Educator Mary Delehanty at mdelehanty@brickstoremuseum.org or (207)985-4802.
