After 7 years and 56 artist residencies, our small-but-mighty slice of the art world has sunsetted. The Residency Project began in 2018 as a passion project, social sculpture, and act of radical hospitality. We opened our home to artists and public audiences, and we fostered so many memorable moments. The Residency Project provided time and space in support of creative research and artistic experimentation, amplified historically underrepresented artists, and platformed projects at the nexus of art, ecology, identity, and intersectional justice. This endeavor grew to have an even broader reach and deeper impact than I ever could have imagined, and I am so thankful that many of our former residents have become close friends. To this day, our connections continue to deepen through shared walks in the park, game nights, and foodie adventures; through studio visits, letters of recommendation, and simple thinking of yous; and through support for one another's major milestones—be it a new exhibition, a career shift, a huge international move, or the welcoming of a new baby. Thank you to all who were a thread in the fabric of TRP, and to those who did not yet have a chance to weave your way in, please know that I remain open to other opportunities to connect! Last but not least, I leave room for the possibility that the  sun may rise again in the future for TRP. Until then...

Resting for now,
The TRP Team: Sarah, Matt, and Kugel Umles
