Get matched →Fort Union National Monument Artist in Residency Program welcomes all artists, writers, musicians, or performance artists to work at this historic frontier army post nestled against the Sangre de Cristo Range in northern New Mexico near Watrous.
Fort Union National Monument, located in Mora County near Watrous, NM, was the hub of commerce, national defense, and migration at the final stretch of the Santa Fe Trail. The site is close to the high plains and grasslands of eastern New Mexico, Capulin Volcano, the Historic Victorian Town of Las Vegas, and the Santa Fe Trail outpost of Wagon Mound. Housing is provided in Park Service housing suitable for solo artists and couples, comfortably isolated on the high plains, 30-40 minutes from nearby towns, with spotty cell phone service and no or limited wifi.
For questions about the Artist in Residency program, contact NPAF (not the park directly).
