Djerassi Resident Artists Program

The Djerassi Resident Artists Program has evolved dramatically in its 25-year history. In 1979, Dr. Carl Djerassi founded the Program in order to honor the memory of his daughter Pamela, a painter and poet,who died the previous year. The Program was modeled on artist colonies on the East Coast, and its purpose was to support emerging and accomplished artists. The family foundation that Dr. Djerassi established initially offered residencies to sole female artists, but in the early 1980s the Program was expanded to include men and began providing residencies for groups of artists of all disciplines. With the renovation of structures on a nearby ranch into fully operational living quarters and studio spaces, the project was transformed into a comprehensive residency program.
