PODS!

Building on the success of Salon, Symposia!, and the Residencies, the ISP represents a next step for artists ready for something that doesn’t feel like a traditional program, but rather a personalized ecosystem of support.  Within this, we are excited to introduce PODS, the newest addition to the ISP. PODS are curated small groups of artists (3) who meet frequently, creating an ongoing space for dialogue, critique, and shared growth. Participants present their work for feedback from both mentors and peers, fostering sustained critical exchange and meaningful engagement. Alongside these collective sessions, each artist receives three one-on-one meetings with the core mentors of their pods, allowing for focused guidance tailored to their evolving practice. The program also includes special opportunities such as surprise guests, studio visits, mentor-led lectures, and curated trips.
