TCP presents CCHP 2011 Artists in Residency
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
(Atlanta. Georgia- July 18, 2011)

The Creatives Project (TCP) Announces its
CCHP Artist-in-Residency Program
Accepting applications through August 31, 2011

press inquiries: press@thecreativesproject.org


TCP is now accepting applications for the first of its four CCHP Artist-In-Residencies scheduled to roll out through 2013.

    The Creative Community Housing Project (CCHP) is the Artist-In-Residency program of The Creatives Project (TCP). We are dedicated to supporting the day-to-day lives of creative individuals, offering various levels of financial and promotional support while nurturing the arts eco-system through arts education service. Residencies range from studio space to exhibition space and housing. In exchange, each CCHP program participant gives back to their local community through arts-based outreach completed in conjunction with our Community Arts Program (CAP). With CAP, The Creatives Project provides students, teachers, and communities direct hands-on arts experiences through personal interaction with artists. TCP encourages each artist to explore his/her discipline with students, teachers, and community members through a variety of components that may include workshops, classes, lectures and discussions, rehearsals, performances, community events, and mentorship. Currently, service hours are to be completed in collaboration with our nonprofit affiliates: One Love Generation (OLG) and Jacob's Ladder.
The CCHP “Artist-in-Studio” Residency
The CCHP “Artist-in-Studio” Residency will provide six  Atlanta artists with free long-term studio spaces and exhibition opportunities for a minimum of one year. In exchange, each of the selected artists will complete mentorship with a youth artist of OLG for three hours one night per week. The studios and exhibition spaces are located at The Goat Farm Arts Center in Atlanta, Georgia; where the mentorship will also take place.
