halley k harrisburg '90 and Michael Rosenfeld Artist-in-Residence Program

The halley k harrisburg '90 and Michael Rosenfeld Artist in Residence program is the result of a generous gift that allows º¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿ÊÒ to invite internationally renowned artists to campus to work directly with students and the broader College community to enhance the learning experience. more...

Selected artists are invited to join the º¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿ÊÒ community during a given academic year, and the structure of the residency is flexible. During their year in residence, the participating artist typically makes multiple visits to campus to engage with students and faculty and develop their own creative projects. A public lecture provides an opportunity for the participating artist to share insights about their practice and current work to a broad audience.

The halley k harrisburg ‘90 and Michael Rosenfeld Artist in Residence Program is jointly administered by the º¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿ÊÒ Museum of Art and the Visual Arts Department at º¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿ÊÒ. A committee of students, faculty, and staff members nominates participating artists based on suggestions from distinguished members of the visual arts community on campus and beyond.
