Develop and implement a public engagement project during a five-month residency, with a home base/workspace in the new Creative Hub. The DAM’s Creative-in-Residence program offers a unique opportunity to take inspiration from on-view exhibitions and collections while working with visitors from around the world. Utilize DAM visitors as a resource, collaborator, point of inspiration, or active participant in a project that you create in the museum environment. The first two months of the residency are dedicated to ideating, experimenting, and exploring – both ideas and materials. The subsequent months will focus on implementing your creative project, working with DAM visitors, and presenting a culminating moment.The Creative-in-Residence home base is a public flexible workspace inside the Creative Hub. Custom worktable configurations, pop-up display, outdoor spaces, and areas for larger group work or performances will be available options for the resident. The resident will also have access to art workshop spaces for additional equipment and resources.A minimum of 10 hours onsite per week is a requirement of the Creative-in-Residence program. Two 3-hour blocks (6 hours) will be regularly scheduled “office hours” that need to include at least one weekday (ex. Tuesdays & Thursdays 1-4pm). The remaining 4 required onsite hours can be carried-out at the resident’s discretion. The Creative-in-Residence workspace is accessible any time during museum business hours.The intention of this residency is to expand the practices of local emerging creatives through the opportunity of creating and interacting with the public in a museum environment. We are committed to developing ongoing connections with Denver’s creative community to further develop engaging experiences for visitors and creatives alike.
