Established in 2019, MU’s Artist in Residence (AIR) is a program of the College of Arts and Science and a collaboration of the Museum of Art and Archaeology, School of Music, Department of Theatre, School of Visual Studies, and Department of English. Working together, these principals have focused the program’s mission to that of inviting established and emerging artists to MU to celebrate the arts and cultivate creativity across disciplines. The AIR helps to position MU as a national leader in supporting the arts and building a creative economy.
