Holyoke Art Pilots the Artery Exchange Program with First Artist-in-Residence, Jay Neal

The Artery Exchange residency program started in 2024 with support from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council, and the donation of a floor model etching press from the estate of Natalie Warshawer.

Artery Exchange

The Artery Exchange is the residency program of Holyoke Art established with support from the Holyoke Local Cultural Council. This program provides selected artists with a private studio space with use of the AE etching press, access to our Print Shop makerspace, a stipend, and a supplies budget. Over the course of two months residents will create new work for an exhibition at The Artery, with the added benefits of teaching opportunities, networking events, and professional development assistance.

Applicants must be over 21 years old, and not in a degree-seeking program.
