The Factory on Willow

A 12-week non profit program designed to bring new emerging and amateur artists from around the world to Manchester, NH. Our program fosters an environment that allows creative freedom to explore, define, and polish your working portfolio. Selected applicants are provided a studio apartment with basic household amenities, heat, hot water, electricity & internet provided. Each residency concludes with an artist opening celebration. The Opening acts as a solo or duo exhibition to feature each artist’s developing works. Our onsite event space is set up to feature your installations and presentations to the local community. AIR’s may also organize/host additional public events/programs (artist talks, community dinners, workshop, studio visits, etc.)
