GROW Residency
Creative Greensboro's 2025 GROW Residency series
I have been selected as one of 9 artists selected for the 2025 GROW Residency series. The Greensboro Residency for Original Works provides selected artists free studio space for the creation of new work while offering opportunities for the public to engage in the creative process.

Contribute Now!
Due to a recent lay-off at a non-profit I worked for, I now need support of at least $500 to cover residency prep costs. Even a small donation can make a big difference. Contributing to my upfront programming supplies (which will be reimbursable up to $500 from GROW) would be beneficial since my current funds are to support monthly living expenses while I job search. Your support—whatever you can contribute—will directly fund this transformative project and help me continue sharing the power of creative expression.
More About GROW!
GROW is a flexible creative space, managed by Creative Greensboro, the City’s office for arts and culture. Compensated residencies of up to twelve weeks are awarded to Guilford County-based creative individuals and organizations to produce new and original works that encourage visitation and engagement by the public. Each residency includes at least six hours of weekly programming that is offered to the public free of charge. For more information, visit www.greensboro-nc.gov/GROW.
Focus
My work tends to center people of color, women, and queer identities via a focus on wellbeing and day to day survival.
Methods
My work incorporates various methods to support the focused communities such as journal techniques for depression and mental health check-ins.
