Announcing the Worcester County cohort for Assets for Artists' Capacity-Building Program
MASS MoCA's Assets for Artists (A4A) has selected ten Worcester County artists as the next cohort to receive Capacity-Building fellowships. In case you missed it: ArtsWorcester will serve as home base for this year's cohort, welcoming this group of artists as they receive professional development resources and build their creative community.
With the support of Greater Worcester Community Foundation, ArtsWorcester looks forward to welcoming the cohort during their intensive six months together, connecting them to each other and to previous Capacity-Building artists, and showcasing their work and accomplishments in the Fall of 2025.
