About the Workspace Program
Established in 1990, the Workspace Program offers three annual residencies to New York State emerging artists to create new work in handmade paper. The program seeks to encourage emerging artists to explore the creative possibilities of handmade paper, develop this art form, and promote the Workspace artists through exhibitions of their work produced at Dieu Donné, as well as through print and digital format.

The Workspace Program is supported, in part, with public funds from the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts, and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs; and by the Lily Auchincloss Inc. Foundation, the Milton & Sally Avery Foundation, Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Greenwall Foundation, the Albert Kunstadter Foundation, and others.
