Get matched →Summer residents work out of 200–300 square foot studios in the Luther Barn, a historic livestock barn (built in 1875). They have 24-hour access to their studios, our print shop, our wood shop, and our ceramics studio. All residents live a short walk away in one of our three residency houses, the Schoolhouse, the Lodge, and the HVA, where accommodations include a private bedroom, shared living room, dining room, kitchen, and bathrooms.
Two to three times per month, creative professionals visit to give short lectures on their work and make one-on-one studio visits with residents. Our embedded critics, Adam and Lauren of Ghost of a Dream, lead monthly group studio visits, while Co-Director Eve Biddle and Director of Artistic Programming Will Hutnick make one-on-one studio visits. All residents are invited to participate in a monthly evening of artist’s talks and presentations, and are encouraged to be available on the last Saturday of every month for Open Studios.
The Summer Residency is offered on a sliding scale from $0–900. The actual cost to host the residency is $5,000 per person, mostly covered by donors and grants. A contribution of $900 per month per person is recommended for artists who are able to contribute.
