In May 2023, NYC Crit Club was honored to hosts 10 artists from Montreal, Canada, as part of a collaborative International Residency with Artch.

Artch is a non-profit organization working to identify, support, train and promote emerging contemporary artists, as well as creating links between the art communities and the business world, new art collectors and the general public.

The 2-week immersive residency introduced the Montreal-based artists to the New York art world, through studio visits with artists, gallery tours with NYC Crit Club Faculty, specialized workshops and a critique with an esteemed panel of artists.

In June 2023, Catherine Haggarty, Co-Founder of NYC Crit Club and Founder of The Canopy Program visited CAM Summer Fellowship artists in Memphis, TN.

Catherine Haggarty presented her keynote lecture “Pathways for Success” and provided feedback to the 2023 Fellowship artists.

The Contemporary Arts Memphis "CAM" Summer Fellowship was founded by Memphis native and New York-based artist Derek Fordjour.

“The CAM Summer Fellowship is designed to empower artists early in their development in ways that expand their thinking, inspire ambition and expose them to experiences that inform better decision making. CAM Summer Fellowship is an effort to demystify the creative journey and to make the art world more accessible.”
