Brackish Artist Residency

 

What is Brackish?

Brackish is our Artist Residency that seeks to aim a magnifying glass at our complex and disconnected relationship with water in Southeast Louisiana. We accomplish this by educating and enlightening cohorts of artists yearly through a diverse curriculum centered around infrastructure, local government, and history. We will create a more informed creative sector that will act as conduits of climate resilience and hope for Louisiana residents.

To learn more about the project contact: Keree Blanks at keree@nolawater.org.
