Description

The UCLA Film & Television Archive’s Artist-in-Residence Program will host an emerging artist for two weeks on-site at the Archive’s locations in Santa Clarita at the Packard Humanities Institute and in Westwood on the UCLA campus during the late spring of 2025 to activate the Archive’s collection in their artistic practice. The 2025 artist-in-residence will work exclusively with one or a combination of three specific collections: the Hearst Metrotone News Collection, In the Life LGBTQ+ Collection and KTLA Newsfilm Collection. The program will provide the artist with the time and support necessary to access and work with these unique collections, creating a project that will reach new audiences and make connections with Los Angeles’ cultural community.
