Crisis Residencies at A Studio in the Woods

Local, national, and international artists of all disciplines who have demonstrated an established dialogue with environmental and cultural issues. Artists are being asked to describe in detail how the unique region will affect their work, propose a public component to their residency, and suggest ways how they will engage with the local community.

Both established and emerging artists may apply, but a dedicated practice and demonstrated commitment to public engagement are expected. Artists of color are encouraged to apply, particularly applications from Indigenous artists. Students enrolled in degree-seeking programs are not eligible. Collaborative teams of up to two artists can be in residence.

Proposals are due April 10, 2023, and residencies will be awarded by June 1, 2023

Residencies are 6 weeks and will take place between September 2023 and May 2024. You may come over six consecutive weeks or come twice for three-week sessions.

Recipients will be provided $3000 as a stipend and $2000 towards materials. Residents are expected to cover personal living expenses, additional materials and supplies, and any other expenses relating to the cost of producing work incurred while in the program. Travel and shipping expenses to and from A Studio in the Woods for the residency are also the responsibility of the artist.
