UETF Artist Resilience Residency Spotlight: Gerome Olona

The National Institute of Flamenco is proud to be one of five organizations working together with the Urban Enhancement Trust Fund (UETF) to facilitate artist residencies for their Artist Resiliency Residency Program. Keep an eye on our newsletters and social media for announcements and updates from our 18 resident artists!

Meet Gerome Olona, an Albuquerque local who has been acting, writing, and improvising around town for the better part of a decade. In Spring 2023, his UETF Resiliency Residency project will be a site-specific theatre performance series around Albuquerque. The audience will be able to personally plant fabric grow bags with seeds while watching the play, and will take them home after the play is over to grow wherever they call home.
