Ace NOLA launches Artist in Residency Program

Ace Hotel NOLA has announced the return of its long-running Artist in Residence (AIR) program. Through AIR, which has hosted over 350 artists in the past decade, artists are provided a month-long hotel stay, during which they create and then exhibit works on a quarterly basis. 

Ace New Orleans is rolling out AIR 2023/2024 in tandem with 8 other Ace properties globally, kicking off with François Boudreaux, who will host his exhibit opening onsite August 5, 6-9pm. Sultana Isham, Chef Jasmine Robinson, and Donaka Autry will also participate in residencies over the next year. These artists were selected in collaboration with the locally based curatorial partner Material Institute, a nonprofit arts center in the 9th Ward providing resources to a new generation of artists across music, fashion, and community gardening.
