Cuttyhunk Island Artists' Residency is a residency for visual artists on a small island off the coast of Massachusetts. CIAR offers two week-long residency sessions each year. Each session invites 12 visual artists to be inspired by the island's natural beauty, and to develop their work within a warm and inclusive community environment. The artists in residents are joined by accomplished Visiting Artists and Arts Professionals who share their expertise with the group.

Established in 1982, the prestigious Core Residency Program at the Glassell School of Art awards residencies to exceptional, highly motivated emerging artists and critical writers committed to developing a sustainable practice.

The Center for Contemporary Printmaking is a nonprofit printmaking facility housed within the historic 19th century stone carriage house of the Mathews Park cultural complex in Norwalk, Connecticut.

CEC ArtsLink supports transnational cultural mobility and collaboration, empowering artists and arts leaders to engage communities in dialogue and creative projects for a more equitable, compassionate and sustainable world. We resolutely embrace inclusivity, independent expression, human rights, and the development of civil societies.

CEC ArtsLink supports dialogue between artists and communities through individual encounters, public events, transnational networks, and virtual platforms. Founded in 1962, CEC ArtsLink believed that it was essential for citizens of the United States and the Soviet Union to meet and build mutual trust, while their governments engaged in the Cold War. Today, artists and arts leaders play a vital role in nurturing civil societies. Through the simple act of bringing people together in a shared experience, through exploration of the unfamiliar, art can dissolve borders and help communities overcome distrust and insularity. As nations increasingly retreat behind their borders, it becomes imperative for the work of artists and arts leaders to catalyze communities in mitigating conflict and prejudice locally, nationally, and globally.

The Archie Bray Foundation is actively committed to promoting, celebrating, and sustaining the ceramic arts through the residency program, education, gallery, ceramic materials and technology, and community engagement on a local, national, and international scale. In the words of Archie himself, The Bray makes available, “for all who are seriously and sincerely interested in any of the branches of the ceramic arts, a fine place to work”.

Trillium Arts envisions an artist residency center where artists of many disciplines can find a creative home away from home, offering secluded space for rejuvenation in a beautiful, remote setting in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Our current facilities are best suited to the disciplines of literary arts, photography, visual arts and arts administration.

ABOUT US
Tofte Lake Center (TLC) is a non-profit organization that provides residencies for artists who crave dedicated time to work on their projects, for creatives who seek individual growth through guided workshops or retreats, for arts organizations that want to make time to re/focus on their goals or mission, for arts leaders to gather to exchange ideas with colleagues in their field. TLC is on a pristine lake near Ely, Minnesota, and adjacent to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. 

MISSION 
We're committed to supporting artists by providing a nurturing experience rooted in nature where artists of all disciplines and backgrounds feel safe to take a break from the "work" of art to play, feel inspired, and be rejuvenated.

VISION 
We envision an interconnected world in harmony with nature, where artists are supported and celebrated and where taking a break is recognized as integral to the creative process.
 

The mission of the Foundation is to promote the visual arts and education in the arts through cultural exchanges. Guided by the Hellenic history and culture, the Foundation will promote artistic dialogue between the Greek, American and International communities of artists.

Sable Arts Projects, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering a forum for the practice, development, creation, and sharing of arts in rural Vermont and beyond. We do this through The Sable Project, an off-grid artist residency program and community space in the Green Mountains.

We host artists of all disciplines throughout the summer - fueling the creative process with space, supplies, food & family-style meals, facilitated art shares, time in our gardens, and communal living. Inspired by the beautiful Sable Land and grounded in community agreements, 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 for each other.

At Food and Art Fridays, our bi-weekly public gatherings, pizza is served from our wood-fired cob-oven, artists in residence share their work-in-progress, and audiences enjoy live performances by headlining artists. Each August, The Sable Ensemble - a curated company of Sable Alumni - collaboratively creates a show from scratch in just three weeks. An embodied experiment in collaboration, collective living, & artistic practice, the result of this process is our end-of-summer-showcase, Water in the Wood.         

Since Sable’s birth in 2014, we have hosted over 300 artists and thousands of visitors!
