Artpace has been an important center for the production and exhibition of contemporary art projects in San Antonio, Texas for the past 23 years. Its residency program is respected around the world for the support it offers to artists, the caliber of work it helps them to produce, and the career opportunities it facilitates during the residency and long after. Artpace has recently expanded its program to include a residency for international curators as well as one for local performing artists. These initiatives not only serve new populations of artists and curators, they also enhance the experience of artists in the existing residency by increasing their contact with critical voices and creative collaborators.

“It is an honor to be part of The Warhol Foundation’s mission to support the visual arts coupled with its commitment to specifically support the voices of women, POC, Native Americans, and LGBTQ. It is simply thrilling to be part of an organization where we get to see these values writ large and implement real change in real life ways in the visual arts community that still so needs to move forward in terms of social justice, equality, and diversity. We put our money where our mouth is. How many institutions actually do that?”
