About

Lower Manhattan Cultural Council's residency on Governors Island places artists in studios on a car-free island in New York Harbor with views of the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline. The island — a former military base — offers a surreal blend of pastoral quiet and urban proximity. Open studios draw thousands of visitors. One of the most unique residency settings in the world.
