The aim of the Artists in Residence series of documentary-style videos is to give viewers a "behind the scenes" look at working artists in order to de-mystify the creative process, heighten appreciation for the artistic community's contribution to our lives, and to reveal the commitment artists make to their work. The artists involved have contributed their time and expertise with the knowledge that their messages about the arts will receive the largest audience possible.
