What to expect
We provide time and space to our resident artists, to develop and/or create new work. We develop deliverables for each residency on a case-by-case basis. In general, our residencies are one month long, and include a generous stipend and housing in our dedicated artist housing, known as "The Shed."
Artist expenses
We work with artists to ensure they have everything they need to have a successful residency. While apartment-style living quarters are provided with a full kitchen, we do not offer any meals. We also suggest that artists plan on renting a vehicle during their stay.
What else
We expect all resident artists to commit to a series of community engagement activities while in residence, which are designed around each specific residency. This often takes the form of masterclasses, performances, open studios, etc.
Your home away from home
The Shed is our wonderful, recently restored, dedicated artist in residency housing. The building is exclusively made up of three bedrooms, each with a private bathroom across two apartments. Each apartment also features a full kitchen, living space, and other expected amenities.
