The Canopy Program is a year-long intimate mentorship program, providing artists access to work exclusively with a Faculty Mentor and a Cohort of 10 artists for three semesters.
In-person cohorts are available for artists based in the NYC Area. Our studio is located in Chelsea (NYC).
Virutal cohorts are available for artists around the world. Meetings are hosted via Zoom.
Artists will meet regularly throughout the program’s year for critiques, discussion and resource building. Each Cohort will have opportunity to engage in additional special workshops and lectures. The Canopy Program culminates in a pop-up group show with an opening reception in New York City!
