Whether you’re taking your first steps in printmaking or looking to refine your craft, this residency is designed for you.

  • Printmakers and visual artists looking for dedicated studio time
  • Educators and creative professionals eager to develop new techniques
  • Artists new to residencies who want a welcoming, support

What will you get? 
This is a space to grow, experiment, and connect.

  • Freedom to experiment with new techniques at your own pace
  • Feedback & mentorship in a relaxed, supportive setting
  • A community of like-minded artists—connect, share, and collaborate
  • Cultural outings and time to explore Buenos Aires
  • Lunches (Lodging not included)

Aviário Studio Photography Residency

We offer the conditions to test possibilities and materialize ideas. On one hand, it can be a moment of transition, more connected to experimentation and research; on the other hand, it can be the point of consolidation of a project translated into the production of a new body of work.

An image of a beach with a reflective lake to the right at sunset. The word "Awakening" has been overlaid.

Awakening Residency (aka ArtWitch camp)

This year, we will continue with our esoteric study and understanding of how the elements, witchcraft and creativity converge and diverge. Please bring your copy of the Awakening Tarot because it is the basis for our exploration.

To celebrate the inaugural year of the Obsidian Academy of Esoteric Arts, all confirmed 2025 Awakening participants will be gifted a 2-month free membership to the Obsidian Inner Sanctum online Coven when signing up for membership.

Awakening is an intensive and immersive 7-day thematic residency open to all professional and emerging artists of all disciplines.  The residency will be of particular interest to those who work with the five elements of earth, air, fire, water and spirit, and who wish to connect to the idea of the ‘witch’ in both a historical and contemporary context. People of colour, diverse gender identifications, and all abilities are encouraged to apply and will receive priority acceptance.

This program has been designed to provide a sacred and inspirational space for seekers to explore their own practice within the elemental framework of earth, air, fire, water and spirit. The objective is to engage holistic practices to connect our authentic self with our environment and to incorporate metaphysical practices within creative self-expression. Finding agency through voice, decolonization, global environmental concerns, socio-political and economic factors which affect our ability to be open about our spiritual practice in the arts, etc.

Sheepscot Arts Preserve

Alna, ME, United States

Sheepscot Arts Preserve is a new artist residency center that is dedicated to supporting Visionary, Outsider and Narrative (Visual) Artists of all disciplines with an emphasis on visual artists. We are located on 42 beautiful acres bordering the Sheepscot River in Alna, Maine. The center provides group and individual artist residencies, free of cost. We also provide some, to all, of the meals depending on the type of residency you attend. We especially encourage self-taught artists and marginalized artists to apply but welcome everyone who feels as if our residency is the right fit.

Our housing includes year round yurts, an off-grid cabin, and bedrooms in the 1800's farmhouse. Each artist has their own studio space to work and access to all communal areas on the property. Our studio spaces change depending on the needs of the artists in residence but are located throughout the different buildings on the property, including the yurts and the large timber frame barn. We are in a quiet rural area and  have hiking trails that wind throughout the property. 

We offer stipends to offset the cost of travel/loss of work for those who can't attend without one.

We have a suggested donation to cover our costs but our program is free to all, and your choice of donation is not part of our selection process.

Walking & Art: More Discussions At The Wayside

Walking & Art: More Discussions At The Wayside

Contemporary art has a long-established and well-documented relationship to walking. Whether used as a technique for drawing lines on the Earth, or a way of asserting collective sovereignty on stolen land, walking is now accepted as one of the many ways that artists make work. It is also, and equally, deployed as a method in neighbouring disciplines within the arts, humanities and social sciences. As such, it is always subject to new academic and cultural “turns” as they emerge.

Walking is also intrinsic to many of the quotidian, spiritual, philosophical, social and political aspects of our lives and provokes myriad questions for us as artists. We acknowledge that there are archetypal conventions of “walking art” that do not adequately represent the extent of interest or investment in walking as a practice, or the questions that walking may invoke for artists right now.

This residency is open to any, and all, approaches to walking as art, and encourages participants to grapple with the questions that arise for all those who have a stake in this area of artistic practice.

This residency gives you the opportunity to bring these questions to the fore, and to work through them, in practical ways, among your peers. We invite you to share insights and experiences, and to address with us the questions that arise from your practice with us, and with other participants. We encourage you to take full advantage of the opportunities presented for working beyond the studios.

Fine Arts Work Center Visual Arts Fellowship

Since its creation 50 years ago, the Fine Arts Work Center Fellowship has become one of the leading residency programs in the world. 

Each year, the Work Center offers 20 seven-month residencies to a juried group of emerging visual artists, fiction writers, and poets. Each Fellow receives an apartment, a studio (for visual artists), and a monthly stipend of $1,250 plus an exit stipend of $1,000. Residencies run from October 1 through April 30. During this time, Fellows have the opportunity to pursue their work independently in a diverse and supportive community of peers. 

The Fine Arts Work Center has hosted more than 1,000 Fellows since 1968, nurturing an accomplished and far-reaching alumni network. The impact of the experience is best illustrated by the extensive list of awards Fellows have gone on to win, including the Guggenheim Fellowship, MacArthur Fellowship, Prix de Rome, Pulitzer Prize, and the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Chateau d'Orquevaux Artists & Writers Residency France

Orquevaux, France

Chateau d'Orquevaux is an Award Winning International Artists & Writers Residency running year in France.

Our mission is to create an international environment where all artists are welcome. A safe place to explore, contemplate and share ideas. A place without judgement, where all artists are free of explaining themselves. We aim to empower the creative spirit in its many forms, which in the process, has created a vibrant artistic community.

The Chateau d'Orquevaux Artist Residency emphasizes the human experience and the creative process. The residency creates an environment for the artist in their quest for personal growth and artistic expression, while reinforcing, that the end product is not necessarily the principal focus.

We believe life is a creative journey and consider every moment a part of the process.

New experiences stimulate creativity and revitalize the creative mind. For this reason our residency is self-motivated. The artist must immerse themselves in the French country lifestyle.

The things you thought you knew back home will begin to look different.

​This magnificent estate in the French countryside of Champagne-Ardenne is a unique environment, offering artists a place with limited distraction, plenty of food and an abundance of natural inspiration.

Additional Eligibility Information

Chateau d'Orquevaux offers a respite from "real" world  energy.  This magnificent estate in the French countryside of Champagne-Ardenne offers artists a place with limited distraction and an abundance of natural  inspiration.   

Art is an act of expressing feelings, thoughts, and observations. Art, in its broadest sense, is a form of communication. It means whatever the artist intends it to mean, and this meaning is shaped by the materials, techniques, and forms it makes use of, as well as the ideas and feelings it creates in its viewers . 

"Artist-in-residence programs and other residency opportunities exist to invite artists, academicians, curators, and all manner of creative people for a time and space away from their usual environment and obligations. They provide a time of reflection, research, presentation and/or production. They also allow an individual to explore his/her practice within another community; meeting new people, using new materials, experiencing life in a new location. Art residencies emphasise the importance of meaningful and multi-layered cultural exchange and immersion into another culture."

The residency is creatively self-motivated with most of the meals provided, so that artists can fully immerse themselves in the environment and the French country lifestyle. There will be about 23/28 artists-in-residence at a time.
