Please join us for a special conversation exploring studio practice and exhibition making between the three In Situ Artist Fellows at the Queens Museum: Cameron A. Granger, Nsenga Knight, and Catalina Schliebener Muñoz. 

This two year fellowship provides artists rent-free studio space and a full-time salaried position at the Museum, encouraging co-creation, relationship building, situated research, and experimentation alongside QM’s staff and communities. Independent exhibitions have developed from each fellow’s engagement with the complexities of the Museum’s site, current and future programming, and QM’s archives of materials related to the 1939-1940 and 1964-1965 New York World’s Fairs that occurred in Flushing Meadows Corona Park.

Artists will discuss the fellowship and their process in preparing for the solo exhibitions currently on view in the galleries. Attendees are also invited to join the artists in their studios for informal conversation and a behind the scenes look at the research, materials, and ideas that have influenced their work over the past two years.

All are welcome to view the 2022-24 In Situ Artist Fellowship exhibitions in the QM galleries before or after the program concludes:

• Cameron A. Granger: 9999
• Nsenga Knight: Close to Home
• Catalina Schliebener Muñoz: Buenos Vecinos

Please RSVP here.
