Artists in Residence
The 8th Street Marketplace Artist
in Residence (AiR) program selects emerging and established artists
for six-month residencies in donated commercial office spaces in
downtown Boise. AiR originated in 8th Street Marketplace at BoDo,
which continues its commitment to the program, and expanded to an
additional site in downtown Boise-Renewal "Underground" at 8th and
Fulton. The City of Boise's Department of Arts and History, in
partnership with property owners Ephriam Greenwall, G. Square
Companies, and the Boise Weekly, is administering and co-sponsoring
the program.
ELIGIBILITY: Open to Idaho artists of any artistic discipline.
Emerging and established artists are considered.
