Congratulations to alum Tavarus Blackmon (MFA 2018), recipient of a Caldera Arts Residency for Spring 2021.

Caldera Arts was founded in 1996 as an arts summer camp in the mountains. The idea was to bring young people with limited opportunities together to make art. The Caldera Arts Residency Program enables artists and cultural workers to work on projects and to build skills that work to abolish oppression and activate change. Caldera offers 2 and 3.5-week residencies January through March with 7 to 10 artists in residence every month.
