Formed in 2018, the mission of 1761 Arts is to foster collaborations—on both the individual and organizational levels—with the purpose of developing revolutionary ideas in the arts and humanities. For individuals, artist residencies and development labs are a fundamental component. At the organizational level, multidisciplinary initiatives and programs are coupled with education, mentorship, and respect for history. Over the years, 1761 Arts has partnered with a wide range of prestigious organizations on community programs, including the Audio Engineering Society, Thomas Edison National Historical Park, Norman Rockwell Museum, and Barrington Stage Company, among others.
