Over the last 25 years, the City of Kitchener has been host to a variety of talented and creative artists as part of their Artist in Residence Program, offering selected artists studio space and an opportunity to contribute to the City’s public art collection. Throughout the years, the program has evolved to focus on community engagement and building meaningful connections to art through thoughtful workshops, events and festivals. In collaboration with the City of Kitchener, Homer Watson House & Gallery is pleased to present AIR25, an exhibition in celebration of current and past artists in residence and their bodies of work.
