Ten years ago, the Artist In Residence (AIR) program grew from two artists to four. It is only fitting that the program is growing again for our 20th season.

We are very excited to announce that for our 20th Season, we have grown the AIR program by adding two new residency positions. Along side the Dance AIR and the Theater AIR, two Research Fellows will be working on research projects that do not have an immediate performance component. (See the individual AIR pages for more information on their projects.)

These six exceptional artists are provided with an artistic home base for a one to two year period, giving them a tangible sense of permanence and place. Resident artists have the use of four spaces suitable for theater, dance and performance work and are offered up to 200 hours of free rehearsal space (per year), a stipend, formal presentations of new works and works in progress, and administrative and technical support. Opportunities are also available to curate, teach in the public schools, and to work with BAX’s student population.
