Gregory Vita (1990–2017), was a dedicated, perseverant, and talented papermaker, paper marbler, bookmaker and printmaker. During his time with us, he wore many hats: a resident artist, a teacher, our resident skateboarder, and a friend you could run your wildest art ideas by. Due to the generosity of Greg's family and friends, we are proud to offer a new artist residency opportunity in his honor.

A three month residency in Pyramid Atlantic's https://www.pyramidatlanticartcenter.org/papermaking" target="_blank">paper studio
