Seniors Partnering with Artists Citywide (SPARC) is a residency administered by the city’s Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA) in partnership with local arts councils in each borough and funded by the Department of the Aging. The initiative, which brings artists into New York City’s senior centers, is entering its fourth year, with a call for proposals due at the end of September. The six-month residency places 50 teaching and practicing artists in as many senior centers across the five boroughs, and last year attracted applications from 130 artists. If you’re an east coast friend of EngAGE and are interested in the program, you can get details here.
