Abbey Foundation Studio Grant

Boonville, CA, United States

Beginning in 2025, The Abbey Foundation will begin to offer 6 month residencies for day use of the 850 square foot studio space. There is also a screened in area attached to the indoor studio which is available for large scale works.  There will be a stipend for purchase of materials and additional equipment ranging from $1000.00 to $5000.00 depending on the budget.

While there is currently no live in residency program, applicants from outside the Anderson Valley, CA area may participate, but provide their own housing.

As the program develops, there may be community workshops which will require the participation of the grant recipient.

Currently, there is no application fee for the grant
