Meet the Brickyard Collaborative’s Artist-in-Residence for 2026!
Helen Danz is a Lynn-based Senior Art Therapist at RAW Art Works. Thanks to a $5,000 grant from the Massachusetts Cultural Council,
she has been given a space to work in the Brickyard and $1,000 for art supplies. She plans to use our space and these resources to “create paintings that feel like ‘modern icons’ for womanhood today” in her signature style that mixes Pop Surrealism and realistic figuration.
