The Art in the Libraries Program at WVU Libraries, will expand the connections between the West Virginia & Regional History Center’s (WVRHC) West Virginia Feminist Activist Collection (FAC) and the public. This collaborative pilot residency program aims to expand the use of and build upon the archival collection by offering awards to support projects that use the collection in new and creative ways. The WV FAIR Program supports artists in the creation of artists' works, small exhibitions, publications, or other creations that imaginatively study, experiment with, and/or build upon the collection materials. The program is open to all artists, with a preference for WVU alumni, including visual artists, conceptual artists, dancers, writers, and cultural heritage practitioners, including curators. Applicants whose proposals uncover hidden stories, and new voices will receive strong consideration.
