The festival will follow a three week artist-in-residence program at the Atlantic Center for the Arts called WINDART. This unique program will bring together an exceptional group of artists who share an interest in kites and other wind / sky based artwork. Please see the following link for more information about the participants: http://subvision.net/sky/events/florida/group-info.htm WINDART residency Atlantic Center for the Arts' WindArt residency will consist of three, closely coordinated and intermeshed programs with international invited artists in residence. There will be frequent, common sessions (workshops, presentations & readings) scheduled over the course of the three weeks, as well as a community-wide WindArt celebration at the close of the residency. Since 1982, Atlantic Center’s residency program has provided artists from all artistic disciplines with spaces to live, work, and collaborate during three-week residencies. Located just four miles from the east coast beaches of central Florida, the pine and palmetto wooded environment contains award-winning studios that include a resource library, painting studio, sculpture studio, music studio, dance studio, black box theater, writer’s studio, and digital computer lab. Each residency session includes three master artists of different disciplines. The master artists each personally select a group of associates - talented, emerging artists - through an application process administered by ACA. During the residency, artists participate in informal sessions with their group, collaborate on projects, and work independently on their own projects. The relaxed atmosphere and unstructured program provide considerable time for artistic regeneration and creation. The residency program is free to accepted artists. Atlantic Center for the Arts provides housing (private room/bath with work desk), weekday meals (provided by ACA chef) and communal studio space.
