Apply for a Residency
We have a small weekend artist in residence program that has been going on since 2017. Since then it has been invitation only. However we are now offering this opportunity to the community!
For one weekend during each exhibit, the gallery invites two artists to showcase their skills while patrons are allowed to observe, ask questions, and enjoy the experience of learning about each artist’s process. We call this program Fresh{AIR} with AIR an acronym for artist-in-residence!
This residency accommodates a number of artist set-ups and work spaces (see photos from previous weekends) that allow the artist to be comfortable as well as accessible to the gallery visitors.
Many visitors are eager to know more about the medium the artist in working in or what type of supplies they use. Artists are also encouraged to bring prints or small originals to sell to visitors directly. The Gallery promotes these weekends on social media and will create video or time-lapse video of the work created that weekend. Sometimes followers not able to make Fresh{AIR} in person will message questions or comments for the artists to answer in a live chat or video so we are able to reach a whole range of art supporters!
Interested in applying to be an artist in residence? Tell us all about your process and your art by filling out the application here.
The gallery hosts this immersive program from 12pm-5pm on the weekend (Saturday & Sunday) before a show closes. Have any questions about Fresh{AIR} or the current exhibit? Contact us at (714) 990-7731 or breagallery@cityofbrea.net.
