Description

A.I.R. Gallery's National Membership program is a three year A.I.R. membership and group exhibition opportunity for women and non-binary artists who reside outside of New York City, but within the United States.

The program was founded in 1981 to expand A.I.R.’s feminist mission to communities outside of New York City. The National Artists form a network of care, support, and opportunity through collaboration and the forging of alliances.

During the program, artists exhibit annually in a curated group show and can apply without fees to juried exhibitions hosted at A.I.R. All National Artists are represented on the gallery’s website and have the opportunity to be involved in artist-led events, including group virtual studio visits. Applicants must live in the United States but outside of New York City, must not have previously participated in the A.I.R. National Artists Program, and must be willing to commit for three years.
