The Legacy Project (formerly Art Cart: Saving the Legacy) has selected the third cohort of artists (and I'm one of them) for its pilot program in New York City and Washington, DC. The program addresses the challenges faced by artists to manage and preserve their life’s work by providing direct, hands-on support and guidance. Each individual artist collaborates with a working partner and students enrolled in a graduate seminar and together create an inter-generational educational experience and mentoring in the documentation of their artistic legacy.
