Associated Residency Program
The Steepletop Residency, inaugurated in 2021, is a partially-subsized two-week or month-long stay; intended for scholars and creatives with institutional or private funding, cost is $4000.
Steepletop residents are scheduled from April-November (along with Core Residents). Stays include a curated cohort, groceries, chef-prepared communal suppers, private bedroom and studio, shared living/kitchen/dining, washer/dryer access, shared workstation w/printer, Nancy Graves Memorial Library, Alumni Collection and B&W darkroom. Our composer's suite has a Yamaha U-1 upright piano.
Our 11-acre campus, situated in the upper Hudson Valley nestled against the Berkshires, features serene meadows and bounteous wooded trails, as well as access to cultural institutions and natural attractions.
