The Ross Lynn Charitable Foundation (RLCF) and the North Central Louisiana Arts Council (NCLAC) present the 2021 North Louisiana Virtual Residency Exhibition from February 1st through March 26th, 2022.
Envisioned as a opportunity for international collaboration between artists, the North Louisiana Virtual Residency saw 16 artists meeting weekly for 8 weeks in spring 2021. By the summer, the residents had formed themselves into 8 groups with the goal of developing new works that reflected both their individual practices and the unique combination of their pairings. This exhibition is a culmination of the bodies of work the artists groups created during their collaborations.

The North Louisiana Virtual Residency is a joint program by the Ross Lynn Charitable Foundation (RLCF) and the North Central Louisiana Arts Council (NCLAC). The North Louisiana Virtual Residency began in May of 2020 as a way to offer virtual space, support, and community for artists during the early stages of the pandemic. RLCF and NCLAC seek to foster a communal and collaborative environment that brings about connections that would otherwise not exist.
