Located 20 miles southeast of Sheridan, Wyoming, the Jentel Artist Residency, now in its 25th year, offers dedicated individuals a supportive environment to further their artistic development. Jentel offers 3-week residencies from mid-January through early December with private studios and access to Wyoming's natural beauty in the foothills of the Bighorn Mountains. We welcome visual artists in all mediums; writers in fiction, creative nonfiction, and poetry; and composers in all genres of music.
Applicants must be 25 years of age to be eligible for a residency. Applicants must also be US citizens or reside in the US during the year of the residency for which they are applying. Applicants in post-doc programs are eligible for a residency; students enrolled full-time (9 hours or more) in an academic program are not.
Five new and two renovated structures evoke the agricultural and historical setting of the Lower Piney Creek Valley and echo the sweeping lines of the foothills and mountains. Accommodations for each resident include a private room, a shared living area and kitchen, and a separate studio space.
