The Place-Based Residency is a unique opportunity for individuals of all creative backgrounds and disciplines to fully immerse themselves in an exquisite retreat environment conducive to working with no distraction.  We invite applications from emerging and accomplished artists, agrarians, designers, writers, teachers, researchers, medical professionals, arts administrators, activists, and thinkers who would benefit from a large amount of focused time to create new work, complete a project, conduct research, teach a workshop, write, or simply think amid the beauty of the Adirondack Mountains.

The primary aim of the residency is to provide high quality time and space for professionals to pursue independent projects that push the boundaries of their field.  Residents have access to a variety of office, studio, and outdoor spaces appropriate for their work in a thoughtfully designed environment.  Successful applicants wish to reflect and explore the impact of place in their work. Residents are encouraged to exchange ideas and engage with the creative energy of the staff and fellow residents, explore the surrounding Adirondack region, and share their knowledge and work with the local community.

Requirements:

• Present a talk or other presentation to program participants and the public as part of the community Applebarn Series.

Group Residencies are also available for collaborators.  Please email us with your intentions so that we can guide you on the best way to apply.  

PLEASE NOTE:  All residents are responsible for their own transportation and any personal materials or expenses.
