The Pfister’s artist-in-residence program is a member of the international Alliance of Artists Communities, the service organization for the field of artists’ communities and residencies. The Alliance includes more than 250 members – a diverse field of artists’ communities, residency programs, individuals, and institutions that support living artists in the creation of new work – from across the U.S. and in more than a dozen countries worldwide. More information about the Alliance can be found at www.artistscommunities.org
According Joe Kurth, The Pfister’s General Manager, “For decades, The Pfister has hosted the much acclaimed Victorian Art Collection, the largest of its kind in any hotel in the world. We want to expand on our reputation as a destination hotel for art connoisseurs by offering our guests and the public a glimpse into the world of art as it is being created – in real time, by amazingly talented artists.”
Kurth further explained that The Pfister’s Business Center on the Ground Level of the hotel was renovated to accommodate both a working space for the artist, as well as a space where art will be on display for enjoyment and purchase. The studio is located near the Café at the Pfister. To schedule an art tour, please contact our Concierge at # 414-273-8222.
