Scam

Have you ever heard of or looked into a Los Angeles artist residency program called Raid Projects? I have, and had even gone so far as to print out the info for future consideration. Thankfully, an enraged artist has made a parody website telling us what to expect. Visit it.

I first saw this on art.blogging.la (who first saw it on The OC Art Blog) but held off posting the link because I wasn't sure how legit it was, but since then there have been a number of concurring comments left in response to art.blogging.la's original post. Caryn Coleman of art.blogging.la has posted a follow-up here. Mat Gleason, another California artblogger and neighbor of Raid Projects, has posted his thoughts here.

Thanks, Angry Artist, we need more like you.
