Arts Educators Residency
July 14-20, 2025
This week-long residency provides space for 6 artist educators to center themselves and their work as artists first and get the well-deserved rest and rejuvenation they need. The residency balances personal work time with community interaction and optional sharing of work and process - all in support of each artist’s goals, needs and interests. Lodging is provided- we are not able to provide additional stipends or travel subsidies at this time.
Artists must:
- Currently teach at a K-12 or higher educational institution or identify as a freelance teaching artist

Accessibility
Tofte Lake Center (TLC) strives to be as accessible and accommodating as possible for all individuals and recognizes that this work is ongoing. TLC has one cabin that is wheelchair accessible, including a ramp to the building, two first floor bedrooms, and an accessible bathroom (toilet and shower). Our performing and visual arts studios have ramps as well. TLC sits on a rustic campus and therefore there are some physical challenges to be aware of for those with limited mobility, most notably uneven ground and rugged terrain (gravel paths and some hills). We provide reasonable accommodations upon individual request to the best of our ability. If you have specific access needs or questions please contact our managing director, Riley Burns, at riley@toftelake.org.
