The trees in the northeast U.S. are starting to turn. Fall is creeping in around the edges, and soon the world around us will begin its descent into slumber. And yet, autumn is a lively time for so many things. The arts often launch entire new seasons around this time, and this is the perfect moment for you – a career artist – to line up what’s coming next. Part of your role is to always be on the lookout for those opportunities that suit you best, whether they’re residencies, grants, exhibitions or networking opportunities. Getting yourself and your work into the world is the goal, and we are here to keep you motivated on that path.
