Join the Recology Artist in Residence (AIR) Program and Apple Union Square for an evening where art, reuse, and ideas come together. This event will spotlight creative work shaped by materials that might otherwise be thrown away, and open up a conversation about sustainability through an artist’s lens.
If you’re curious about how discarded objects can become something meaningful, this is your chance to hear from and engage with artists Tariq Stone, Julia Goodman, and Bryan Keith Thomas, moderated by Catherine McMahon. It will be great opportunity to learn how art can spark new ways of thinking about waste, reuse, and everyday materials.
The Recology AIR Program is an art and education initiative that supports Bay Area artists. As part of the Sustainability Education Program, the four-month residency provides a rich and immersive environment for artists to develop their practice while deeply engaging with sustainability and community outreach.
Since 1990, over 190 professional artists and 60 student artists from local universities and colleges have completed residencies.
At the conclusion of each residency, Recology hosts a public exhibition and artist talk which draws hundreds of guests to the studios. Artists contribute one to three works made during their residency to Recology AIR’s permanent collection. Artworks from this collection are frequently curated into off-site exhibitions at galleries and public venues that serve to promote the artists, recycling, and reuse.
Recology AIR fosters the conservation of natural resources by offering artists the time, space, and materials to create meaningful works. Through this program, artists inspire new perspectives on sustainability by educating thousands of individuals each year about the importance of environmental stewardship.
