Ultimate Residency Resource Guide

After a residency, you might create something that would never have otherwise existed. You could discover one or two new lifetime friends. You might land in your body, and find that those dark places are yours and that growth can hurt but is always worth it. You may learn that what is precious is what you left back home. Your peripheral vision could double. You may discover that your breathing has changed, and you are forever one degree hotter. You will certainly feel grateful. I did.

With more than 600 pages of newly compiled information, The URRG offers the essential tools needed for artists’ residencies to function at a highly professional level.

This publication provides introductory topical essays, how-to overviews, and dozens of standard and sample documents on nonprofit management in general and artists’ residency programs specifically. While the guide will be especially helpful for start-up organizations, it can also serve as a resource for established nonprofit programs, especially those evaluating their existing policies and documents. A must-have for new and emerging residency programs, as well as established organizations re-evaluating their programs!

“The URRG is worth every bit of money spent on it. We expect to be using it as a resource well into the future as we gear up to do more things.” — Michele Richey, Founder, Prairie Center of the Arts
