CARE and Badè Museum begin artist-in-residence program

The Museum is happy to host our first "Artist in Residence" Pamela Blotner who is working closely with our staff on a spring 2010 exhibition. This new annual program features a single artist who is invited to create a body of work inspired by the Badè archaeology collection. The guest artist gains access to the entire Badè collection, spends time with staff archaeologists and curators, and conducts research that will drive their final exhibition. This series helps to foster cross-disciplinary dialogue and brings to life significant artifacts from biblical times, placing them in a new contemporary context.
