Atlantic Center for the Arts hosts its 145th  artists-in-residence program with Master Artists: PAUL DRESHER- composer, JOANNE GREENBAUM- visual artist, GREGORY ORR- poet, and 24 Associate Artists from across the globe.  Selected through a competitive application process, the arriving artists will have the opportunity to work and collaborate with their contemporaries for three weeks.
