The Sable Project started with a forested piece of land near a mountain called Sable and an idea to bring creative people together in order to grow food and make art. 

We built an Artist Residency Program for artists across disciplines that is off-grid, environmentally engaged, grounded by physical work, and collaborative. It is designed to foster creativity by removing some of the obstacles that keep artists from creating- space, time, and supplies- while providing new influences in an inspiring environment. Each season is unique and each residency experience evolves through the input of everyone present. 

Our Guest Artist Residency is for adult artists of all ages and disciplines seeking space, time, and a place to focus on their art. Guest Artist Residencies are specifically intended for professional individual artists or groups of artists looking for a shorter residency opportunity to work on a specific project, start a new creative endeavor, or put the finishing touches on a work.

Sable is off-the-grid! We live in the woods in Vermont’s Green Mountains. There is no electricity or wifi. We invite Artists to depart from their often hyper-connected routines in order to engage deeply with their surroundings and cultivate a community of care with one another.

Our 2-5 Day Guest Artist Residencies run parallel to our 10 Day Summer Residencies in June, July & September. More details on Sable Residencies.

A BLUE MOON 

May 29 – June 1 

A  3-day swarming of magical discovery around a redoubtable Blue Moon amongst the enchanted art-site of Mildred’s Lane. A time of growth and resumption, we invite you to share in an intimate assembly – What is Magic? A Blue Moon is a deeply vigorous time for manifesting magic; and the moon will be gleaming over the Spring evenings around the fires. Critically questioning the histories of the contemporary movements and practices of it – what, how, who, and why. Special guest speaker is present and blue.

Founded in 2020, Moulin/Belle is a space for artists and movers to slow down and reconnect with their raison d’être. Intended as an in-process art residency located in Mareuil en Perigord, Moulin/Belle is an approximately 200-year-old renovated house and converted mill, with a vegetable garden and multiple green spaces. Here artists are provided space to slow down and reconnect with themselves, their creativity, nature and the local community. Over 200 artists, collaborators and families have stayed with us since we opened in 2021, including artists from USA, France, Canada, Mexico, Japan, Belgium, Israel, England, Germany, Turkey, Ireland and more. 

While primarily serving movement-based mediums, our space is open to all who wish to disconnect from city-life, and reconnect to nature. Our Choreographic Exchange: DUETS is a two week structured program for professional level dancers that are emerging choreographers. Participants take daily classes and workshops, choreograph a duet, and perform in two duets.

Imagine waking up to the sound of the forest, walking stone paths worn smooth by generations, and sharing a meal with people who have lived their whole lives in the same valley. Then opening your laptop. Picking up your tools. Making something that has never existed before — and giving it back to the place that inspired it.

That's what a Rural Hackers residency feels like.

Anceu is a village of 102 people in the hills of Galicia, northwestern Spain. It's quiet in a way that cities forget is possible. But it's not empty — it's full of stories, landscapes, neighbors, and a community that has learned to find possibility in slowness. When artists, makers, and technologists come here, something shifts. The village doesn't just host them. It collaborates with them.

What's included:

• Private accommodation — individual room at Anceu Coliving with private bathroom
• Maker Space access — 3D printer, vinyl cutter, plastic recycling machine, and badge maker
• Weekly 1-hour mentoring session — a dedicated space to refine your idea, solve problems, and ensure your project connects meaningfully with the local context
• Creative community — you'll be surrounded by an international mix of creators, technologists, and open-minded people from all over the world
• Daily essentials — coffee, tea, milk, fresh bread, and olive oil
• Public closing event — every residency ends with a moment shared with the village: an exhibition, installation, workshop, screening, or public intervention

Expanding on Bearnstow’s long history, we welcome individual artists and small groups of collaborative partners in any discipline to submit proposals to our Artist Retreat program. We provide a place for in-depth creative exploration amid a pris­tine, wooded lakeside setting, rich with natural beauty and a spirit of camaraderie.

We understand the need for having time and space to do one’s work. Diving deeply into artistic collaboration and inquiry, experimenting with motion, media, sound, text or other materials, your time at Bearnstow can help spark new projects or bring vital detail to those already in development. Sharing wholesome communal meals prepared for you and other artists frees up additional time for reflection and letting your imaginations wander. Our hope is that your time away from the stress of your daily routine, spent in our deeply restorative natural setting, will reignite your creative energies.

We-Che Art Residency is an artist run project, founded by the artistic duo Raom&Loba. In line with our own vision and experience, we humbly wish to offer others what we have received from our peers at different points in our artistic careers: an inspiring place, a warm and quiet workspace, conducive to constructive exchanges with artists from every parts of the world… as a small, human-scale adventure.

We-Che is located on 2ha slice of landscape, crossed by a river, planted of pine and native trees on the 259 Road. close to the historic village of Trevelin founded by Welsh immigrants and 15km from Futaleufú and the Chilean border. A natural nest, backing onto a protected natural area of over 40 ha the Nant y Fall river and its waterfalls. In the heart of the 16th of October Valley, its vineyards, its famous and vast 5million tulip field, facing the majestic pre-Andean mountains in the background at just a few kilometers from the southern entrance of Los Alerces National Park. 

We-Che, means Young in mapuche, and we encourage artists to connect to Patagonia as a natural historical and cultural environnement. Our proposal is to spend time and space away to retreat, create and rejuvenate, gathering new inspiration, and also participate to a more respectful relationship between Art and Nature.

We welcome all creators and writers if their project fits to We-Che, evaluating if our structure can give all the necessary space and is able to promote the better experience for each one.
