Who is this program for?
PF Studios is an intentional space centering BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) artists and cultural producers. In an inclusive approach to reducing barriers, we encourage artists who also have lived experiences of marginalized identities in the art world to apply such as — women, queer, trans, and non-binary artists. We acknowledge these identities and experiences as intersectional and layered.
PF STUDIOS is more than just a studio. It is a living affirmation to the power of relationships, collaboration, and shared vision. Resources, time and support cultivate a community where artists can reciprocate each other's growth, share opportunities, and expand what is possible.
Culture
A safe and supportive culture for the development of new ideas, aesthetics, and artistic approaches is key to this intersectional space.
All PF Studios artists are invited to express and realize their artistic practices in a way that makes sense to their cultural context and personal goals, rather than being expected to adjust to a structured program model.
As we continue to learn and make new relationships, the program changes and evolves at a pace that is healthy and sustainable.
Disciplines
The studios are multi-disciplinary, in an open interpretation of art and artists.
The program is best suited to (but is not limited to) artists who work in Drawing, Painting, Collage/Mixed Media, Photography, Digital Media, Textiles, Design, Fashion, Public Art, Sculpture, and Installation.
Artists who are self-taught and artists who are traditionally educated are equally valued.
