Artist Residency Coming Soon

Bayview is embarking on an exciting chapter with the launch of a unique Artist Residency program embedded in the community.

The Artist Residency program will ensure that youth, adults, and seniors living at Bayview and in the Triangle neighborhood have easy access to high-quality art opportunities that encourage creative expression, skill building, and community pride. Local artists will be hired to teach and make art alongside community members for long-term, on-site residencies.

To raise the $100,000 needed annually for the program, Bayview created the La Mariposa Print Series.

Hope Finds a Home

Dedicated on October 5, 2023, Hope Finds a Home was created by the artist team of Amy Zaremba, Alicia Rheal and Sharon Tang, with design concepts and painting contributed by over 120 residents.

Bayview Portraits

Open Art Calls

Bayview seeks to support and fund artists working in all career stages and a range of public art practices with an emphasis on supporting and amplifying the artistic work of BIPOC, Native artists, and artists of historically marginalized backgrounds.

Support Bayview’s Rich Programming

Your contributions make it possible for Bayview to build on the quality academic, social, cultural, recreational, and wellness programs it's known for.

Support the Artist Residency Program

To raise the $100,000 needed annually for the Artist Residency program, Bayview created the La Mariposa Print Series. Each year, Bayview will commission a local artist to create an original artwork inspired by Bayview’s values and residents.

La Mariposa Print Series #1, Tending to Community, is a five-layer reductive woodblock print by treasured Madison artist Lesley Numbers. The artwork uplifts the importance of belonging through nature, home, and community.
