Well,
SPRINKLE
my PUDDIN’
I love Mediterranean food, and when I think of Portuguese food, I conjure images of olives and cinnamon-topped rice pudding. Not together, of course. So, did you know that Portugal has Europe’s highest fish consumption per capita and is among the top four in the world for this indicator? Me neither. If you are awarded this Residence Opportunity, I expect a full report — on art AND food.
Check out this Opportunity for an Artist Residence program sponsored by ARTerra in Portugal. This is a FREE chance to apply for an art submersion program. Create a full body of work in Portugal. Take a chance…
