Applications: We are closed for the season and will reopen in Spring 2025. Please get in contact through the email address above if you would like to be considered for a residency. Please allow several days for a response as this is a volunteer run project, organized by one individual.
Accessibility: The Fellow Ship Artist Residency takes place in a 16-foot camper trailer a wooden ramp entryway. The outhouse and shower are at ground level. The land is generally flat and covered in wood chips. The entrance to the sauna is a ramp. There is one parking spot available to you on a gravel driveway, 10-feet from the trailer door. The trailer has power, water, heat and Wi-Fi. It is equipped with a XL Twin bed, kitchen and work/dining table. Photos of the space and an extensive residency guidebook are available upon request.
COVID19 Safety and the Residency: Please take a Covid Rapid test before you drive up to the residency. Please bring a mask and wear it if we are around each other indoors, for example, when I am giving you a tour of the spaces. I have Diabetes and am in a high-risk group when it comes to COVID. While at the residency, you’ll be in your own, self-contained living space.
About the Residency: I have been developing the Fellow Ship Artist Residency since May of 2019. I want to create a welcoming, quiet place that embraces the value of solitude and personal-time in the process of one’s artistic practice. Many friends helped me create this residency along the way and I am so grateful for their knowledge, help and contributions. I could have not built this without their support.
