Beginning in January 2011, Residency Unlimited and Abrons Art Center’s AIRspace residency program joined forces with the following arrangement. Residency Unlimited organises for curators to make studio visits on a monthly basis and brings specific networking support to the artists participating in the AIRspace program. In counterpart, Abrons Arts Center grants Residency Unlimited the use of its gallery space in the Fall to program a series of exhibitions showing new work by RU international artists in residency. Through this arrangement, in September/October 2011, Residency Unlimited programed 3 exhibitions of new work by RU local and international artists in residency Andrew Mount (New York) , Maude Léonard-Contant (Canada), and Tomaz Hipolito (Portugal).

Each year, Abrons Art Center AIRspace residency program provides free studio space for 11 months, starting in late September, to five New York City visual artists and one curator under the AIRspace residency program (formerly the Visual Artist-in-Residence Workspace Program). Among the artists selected are painters, printmakers, photographers, sculptors, and video and installation artists.

The 2012 Abrons Art Center AIRspace artists in residency are : AMy Feldman , Brie Ruais, Carolyn Salas, Ellie Krakow and Julie Ann Nagle.

The 2012 Abrons Art Center AIRspace curator in residency is: David Everitt Howe
