Parse Seco invites underrepresented emerging artists from all over the world to experience the life of a working artist in an immersive residency experience.   By providing young artists with gallery and work space, housing, curatorial and entrepreneurial training as well as the opportunity to work within a strong artist community,  the residency aims to advance the artistic ambitions and opportunities of artists in residence.   The program aims to guide and mentor those who may not view artistic expression or artistic professions as obtainable due to their race, sexual orientation  subject matter, or income class. During this program, resident artists have access to rehearsal and exhibition space and are required to donate at least 8 hours of instruction  to community or at risk youth in their medium.
