Foundation House Artist Residency: April 2024 Session

Associated Residency Program

Application is currently open for our April 12, 2024 - April 21, 2024 session.

​Foundation House, located in back country Greenwich, CT, will open 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 work and therefore be a part of those conversations.

Each resident will be given a stipend, private bedroom and private or semi-private 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.  

Foundation House is committed to diversity and inclusion, and we prohibit discrimination and harassment of any kind.

The April application will close on February 11th at 11:59PM EST.  We do not allow deadline extensions.  Accepted applicants will hear back from us in around three weeks.
