Artist-in-Residence Opportunity / Apply by June 29, 5pm

The Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Culture invites LA County-based artists to apply for an artist residency with the LA County Cultural Climate Commons: Community Memory Lab & Living Archive, a collaboration between Arts and Culture, LA County Library, LA County Library Foundation, the Altadena Library District, Altadena Library Foundation, and Los Angeles Public Library (LAPL) / Library Foundation of Los Angeles (LFLA).  

The Artist-in-Residence will collaborate with project partners to:

  1. Develop a series of collective memory and artmaking workshops for Altadena residents and others impacted by the January 2025 fires that provide space for creative expression and storytelling and that foster healing and strengthen community bonds. 

  2. Facilitate an opportunity for Altadena-based artists to digitize their artwork as part of LA County Library’s digital collections. 

  3. In collaboration with LAPL, explore ways to connect Artist’s workshops in Altadena to similar efforts led by LAPL, LFLA, and others in the Pacific Palisades. 

Deadline for Submissions: June 29, 2026 | 5:00 p.m. PDT.
