Hard copy materials will not be returned to applicants. Those attending the program may claim their materials during their residency at the Office of the Registrar. Any recordings that are not claimed will be destroyed.
Adjudication and Notification
Participants are selected by impartial adjudicators on the basis of their submitted material. In addition to artistic merit, consideration will be given to the likelihood that the artist's work will benefit from the program.
