ARTIST IN RESIDENCE PROGRAM
The Artist in Residence Program at the Gretchen Schuette Art Gallery occurs at the Salem campus of Chemeketa Community College in the Gretchen Schuette Art Gallery. The Artist in Residence Program offers a single artist or a group of up to three artists the use of the gallery space as an art studio along with a future exhibition.
The artist, or artists, get quality uninterrupted time and space to complete a body of work or foster new directions. They may also gain access to kilns, still life props, and printing presses. In exchange for the studio space, the artist offers two public educational programs such as slide lectures, open visitor hours, or workshops.
