In collaboration with area partners we are excited to host this inaugural themed residency for six artists working in any discipline. The week is structured to balance individual creative work and exploration into fields of fire and fire ecology. Experts in historical fire regimes, indigenous practices and other pertinent fields will provide educational opportunities. Artists will participate in a combination of small group interactive indoor and outdoor classroom experiences, paired with immersive field trips exploring classroom concepts.
This residency is open to artists who reside in Minnesota and are over the age of 18.

Application Information
Additional Eligibility Information
We believe the land Tofte Lake Center sits on and the programs and opportunities we offer belong - and should be accessible to - artists of all genders, ages, abilities and racial, cultural, and economic backgrounds. We regard TLC as a home where all artists, arts supporters and audiences can touch the land, honor the ancestors, and through art become cultural stewards for the generations to come. We create community through personal and professional exploration of our ever-changing cultural dimensions: spiritual, political, economic, health and well-being, academic and, of course - art.
