Fuller Theological Seminary

Project Name: “The Resilient Artist Project” Artform: Resource Location: Pasadena, CA

2025 Spring Grantee

Create, Educate, & Network Grant

Facilitated through Fuller Theological Seminary’s Brehm Center for Worship, Theology, and the Arts, the Resilient Art Project is a response to research about the decline in community and mental and spiritual wellbeing among artists. The project is designed to help artists think about spiritual and mental health in tandem with their creative practices. Through the grant, the Brehm Center will invite artists of any medium to join a one-year cohort to practice spiritual formation, explore therapeutic methods and build resiliency as they collaborate in their respective creative practices. They will participate in retreats, monthly online conversations and curriculum. The project will result in a group arts event featuring artist collaborations, the development of an online course, and a short documentary film.
