Join BGC Library Artist-in-Residence, Jennifer Tobias, for an intimate studio visit! Despite COVID-19, this year’s artists have been in residence with BGC since October. Come see what they have been working on in advance of their virtual exhibition opening in May.

BGC’s Library AIR program invites artists whose work is grounded in research to use the library collection as an incubator for new work, utilizing the library reference staff as thought partners in their process.
