Program Description

Now in its sixth year, The Neon Museum National Artist Residency is designed to expand the interpretive potential of the museum collection. The selected artist, working in the fields of digital, performance or visual arts, will have the opportunity to develop a project inspired by The Neon Museum collection. Engagement with the community is an important residency component through a workshop or specific engagement project. The 2021 residency program will span six weeks from Monday, October 25 through Sunday, December 5, 2021, with the first two weeks conducted virtually and the final four weeks completed on location in Las Vegas.
