About the NextFab x DVAA Residency 2022

This Residency is a collaboration between DaVinci Art Alliance and NextFab, the two leading organizations in Philadelphia that explore the intersection of art, science, and technology. One NextFab member will be awarded membership at DVAA and their own exhibition of the work they create during its duration at DaVinci Fest 2022. This residency is about strengthening relationships and promoting sustainability and community.

The NextFab x DVAA 2022 Residency culminates during the 2022 DaVinci Festival. The exhibit created by the resident artist will be on display at Da Vinci Art Alliance for the entirety of the festival and will be accompanied by community programs and events related to the work presented.
