Installations, sculpture, performance costumes, furniture, print multiples, monoprints, painting, and works on paper are among the media represented in exhibits, each object the creation of one of the artists participating in the Residence Program. Current exhibitions are often accompanied by lectures and other presentations by artists, curators, historians, and conservators.
