COMMUNITY ARTIST IN RESIENCE
We are excited to introduce the next NBAM Community Artist in Residence– Carl Simmons! Simmons is a New Bedford artist who finds inspiration in local history, folklore, & preservation.
NBAM’s CAIR Program creates an access point for community members to engage more deeply with NBAM and the Downtown Seaport Cultural District.
The Program offers local artists space, time, and resources to develop their work. Local organizations nominate CAIR artists. CAIR artists are nominated by the Tomaquag Museum, New Bedford Historical Society, Immigrants’ Assistance Center, and New Bedford Art Museum/Artworks.
