Our goal is to create a residency program that responds to the critical needs of emerging artists and artists as parents, while striving to build a program that reflects the rich cultural environment of today through an active commitment to diversity, equity, accessibility, and inclusion.
Since its inception, creating an environment that stands out as a safe space for creative risk taking, personal growth, and respite has been a core goal of the Elizabeth Murray Artist Residency.
Elizabeth Murray believed that each person deserves an opportunity to make their art and for their art to be visible on equal platforms. With that in mind our goal is to provide space and access for all, regardless of differences of race, age, color, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, religion, national origin, migratory status, disability/abilities, political affiliation, veteran status and/or socioeconomic background.
Accessibility: The site is an historic barn and house property. It is our long term plan to build accessible studios and living spaces, and make the general property accessible. Unfortunately the property is not currently ADA accessible year-round, but we will work diligently with individuals on a case-by-case basis to best accommodate your needs. Please contact us to discuss your needs.
