The Curatorial Program for Research (CPR) is pleased to announce its Open Call for artists to participate in Hello New York 2025! CPR’s professional development program is an ideal opportunity for artists who wish to become connected in the extremely competitive art world ecosystem of New York City. During a period of two weeks, artists participate—free of charge—in workshops led by art professionals and local artists, get involved through community engagement, receive mentorship, and expand their peer networks. 

Our fifth artist program in New York is a professional development and networking program that aims to assist resident and non-resident artists in getting to know the complex and vibrant art scene that exists in New York City. This fifth edition will be hosted by local institutions as well as artists and independent curators, and gathers a cohort of up to twenty local and international artists. The residents will get a chance to meet museum curators, gallerists, artists and other arts professionals. Participating artists meet with key players within the dense New York art ecosystem, and engage in robust programming with daily visits to artist studios and local arts institutions, discussing readings about local socio-political history, arts, and culture.

Part workshop providing the keys to navigate the local and global art world and part meeting between colleagues around a number of urgent issues, this program serves as a platform to share knowledge and approach new perspectives.

Hello New York 2025! will take place from July 7th to July 18th, 2025 and it is carried out with local partners in New York City. The program content is developed in response to the needs of the participating artists.
