Program Description

The Wassaic Project seeks a part-time Print Fellow for 6 months to support our Print Program and Artist Residency based in Wassaic, NY. The Print Fellow will live and work in Wassaic, NY, and manage the Wassaic Print Shop, provide support on projects by artists-in-residence, and provide support with Visiting Artists through the Wassaic Project’s Print Edition Program. The Print Fellow will work closely with 10 Print Edition Artists throughout the summer to produce a print edition with each. The Print Fellow will have an opportunity to work closely with a community of artists and have full access to a 24/hr Print Shop in Wassaic, NY. The Wassaic Project cultivates and supports community for emerging and professional contemporary artists, writers, curators, filmmakers and other creatives. Housed in historic, landmark buildings, the residency program offers ten artists each month the opportunity to live and work in the heart of a rural community.
