Since 2013, Soulangh Artist Village launched an art-in-residence program that aims to foster international exchange with artists from around the world and create a vibrant community of artists; local and international, emerging and established. Artists will be living in close proximity to local craftsmen artisans and are encouraged to take the community and vibrant local culture as inspiration for their art works. Artists have access to wheelchair accessible air-conditioned modern studio spaces, galleries and theatres for exhibitions, workshops and performances. 

To provide artists with a quality environment and to foster art exchange between Tainan and the international community, the Tainan City Government Cultural Affairs Bureau offers professional space for creation at Soulangh Cultural Park(SCP). Through diverse workshops, performances, and exhibitions, the program nurtures the art appreciation population in Tainan by interacting with the residents. It provides opportunities for creative exchange between domestic and international artists, intending to cultivate exceptional artists. 

The Rice Place is an ongoing endeavor of the Friends of Clyde Rice. Clyde and Ginny Rice's historic home serves as a retreat for writers, artists, musicians, naturalists, and others who seek a safe haven in which to reflect and create.

WOWArtSci welcomes artists and scientists to explore their passions in a natural retreat setting with total quiet, dark skies (Bortle 2), and easy access to a vibrant, diverse, and historic community of artists and artisans. We are located on the Taos Volcanic Plateau aka 'The Mesa' - approximately 13 miles from downtown Taos, NM. 

We offer 11 day/10 night supported residencies with a small cash stipend.

Residents are housed in a private 900 sq. ft. Casita with kitchen and bath. To keep the Casita friendly for all of our future residents and guests we request that no toxic or perfumed chemicals be brought onto the property. 

Residents have private access to a small lofted barn studio 10'x12'. The studio has basic art supplies, a wash station, and large workbench. A list of available supplies will be provided before arrival. Residents can also work anywhere outside on our 20 acre property.

This is a rural and somewhat remote location with uneven ground, cantankerous weather, and high elevation. Please contact us with any accessibility questions or concerns. 

We prioritize our LGBTQ+ family, but welcome all!

Artists, writers, performers, musicians, and creative professionals of all disciplines are encouraged to customize their time and conduct self-directed residencies. Projects might be the creative work of an individual or encompass the collaborative work of a group. Centrum encourages residents to connect to community partners and organizations as projects may dictate.

Self-Directed Residencies occur throughout one to four week sessions between mid-August and mid-June.
