Year Program Founded 1982
Description of Program The three week Residency Program brings together three “Master Artists” from different disciplines, such as the visual arts, architecture, music, literature, choreography, dance, performance art, and theater. Each Master Artist determines the requirements and basic structure of their residency, and through an online application process, they each select eight “Associate Artists” to participate.

The essence of the program is to provide a collegial environment for artists of all disciplines where they can engage in meaningful interaction and stimulating discussions, while pursuing individual or group projects. Atlantic Center for the Arts provides workspace and technical support to create without interruption. The Leeper Studio Complex provides residents with resources such as a painting studio, sculpture studio, Macintosh digital imaging studio, dance studio, music/recording studio, black box theater and library.
