Trinity Church in Asbury Park, NJ is offering a studio space for one artist for one year beginning Spring 2023.

Trinity Church is looking for an artist whose work addresses one or more of these areas for social justice.

The artist, emerging or established, will be selected by International Arrivals, whose core mission is to support artists from countries in conflict or whose identities are at risk. International Arrivals will co-host an event with the artist at Trinity Church, NJ.
