Previously, TCE TV host Janelle Giuliani talked to Dan Blask and Summer Confuorto of the Massachusetts Cultural Council about grants – how to find them and how to craft a strong application. Tonight, she’ll talk about another opportunity for artists – residency programs. How to find these, what to consider in choosing one and what residency directors are looking for in their selection of artists for their programs. To help sort this out, Janelle speaks to a frequent juror of such applications, the director of the Italian based artist-in-residency, the C.R.E.T.A. Rome International Residency Program, Lori-Ann Touchette. But first up, Janelle meets with Maaretta Jaukkuri, the director of the Maaretta Jaukkuri Foundation to talk about the Foundation’s fellowship program, affording artists time away for contemplation inside the Arctic Circle.
