About China Residencies:

In 2013, Crystal Ruth Bell & Kira Simon-Kennedy founded the nonprofit China Residencies. Since then, we've supported over 70 artists and collectives on residencies in mainland China and Hong Kong, and working across the worldwide greater Chinese diaspora. We research, interview, and map nearly 100 different residency programs on our openly accessible website, and support the next generation of artists, activists, and arts administrators through our fellowships, exchanges, and fiscal sponsorship program.

We believe diplomacy shouldn’t just be left up to politicians. Artists are cultural and social changemakers, and, in a world where people sometimes forget to listen to and learn from one another, we are passionate about creating opportunities for artists to bring a broader cultural understanding into their work and communities.
