Artist-in-Residence Program!

We are thrilled to share that our artist-in-residence program in Santa Monica, CA continues to grow. This winter, we are excited to introduce Joshua Nazario as our third artist-in-residence, following the program’s successful launch with Madeleine Bialke and the recent residency of Angela Fang Zirbes. Each residency provides artists with the space and inspiration to create new work rooted in California’s distinctive landscapes and vibrant cultural spirit—advancing ART FOR CHANGE’s mission to support both artists and socially conscious collectors.

Through this ongoing program, we foster meaningful connections between artists and patrons who share a passion for art that drives positive change. Each resident artist will produce a new body of work that reflects their practice and responds to the surrounding environment, culminating in a collection artwork available to ART FOR CHANGE collectors.

As part of ART FOR CHANGE’s commitment to creating positive change in the world, we donate a portion of every purchase to relevant nonprofit organizations. For our first two artist residencies, we supported environmental stewardship by planting 10 trees for each artwork sold, contributing to ecological renewal and sustainability efforts. For our current residency, we are proud to extend this impact by supporting Feeding America, helping to address food insecurity and nourish communities nationwide.
