Sharpe Walentas: new studios?

Went to the Sharpe Walentas open studios reception last night after being out of the country for a residency for a couple years and was shocked at the small new studios. As someone who did the program nearly a decade ago, I can’t imagine making the work that I was able to make in the program in the new spaces. My favorite thing about SW was its generous studio spaces.

I talked to a few of the artists, and they said they hadn’t been told of the move either, and showed up to move in and were disappointed by the sizes.

Does anyone know what happened? Is Two Trees no longer subsidizing the space for the program? (throwaway to not out myself)
