Residency Experience Summary
Application Information
Foundation House, located in back country Greenwich, CT, opens its doors for 10 days to six residents, allowing residents the time and space for concentrated creation in beautiful and inspiring surroundings. Foundation House’s mission as a non profit center for learning is to focus on health, wellness, the environment, and social justice. To that end, we host residencies, workshops, lectures and other meaningful gatherings on these topics. At Foundation House, we believe that conversations about these critical topics are not complete without the input of artists and designers, and it is our privilege to be able to offer the space for creative people of all disciplines to be a part of those conversations.
Each resident will be given a stipend, private bedroom and bathroom, all meals plus full kitchen access, and access to studio space, a wide variety of common areas, and 75 acres of land to explore and enjoy. Residents will eat dinner together every evening to ensure that they are building relationships and are familiarizing themselves with each other's work, facilitating feedback and collaboration. Our residency is a working residency. Accepted residents are expected to carry through with their proposed projects and create work that is aligned with Foundation House's mission and the themes of the session.
Foundation House is committed to diversity and inclusion, and we prohibit discrimination and harassment of any kind.
Please note that, due to the limited time period between the close of applications and the start of the residency session, we are no longer able to accept applicants from countries that would require obtaining a visa for travel.
