The Residency Program
Hosting Artists from Around the World Since 1990
The PCF’s principal interest has been in hosting painters of all genres in its residency program, though the PCF has also hosted filmmakers, composers, musicians, sculptors, writers, poets, installation artists, architects, printmakers and curators.
The PCF supports residencies of varying durations ranging from one to three calendar months.
Some residencies may culminate in exhibitions at the James Baird Gallery.
