ART AND ECOLOGY RESIDENCY IN OREGON

(ALL) ART AND ECOLOGY RESIDENCY
Sitka Center Art and Ecology Program
Sitka’s residency program is designed for an artist, writer, or naturalist who has earned a BA, BS, BFA, and/or MA, MS, MFA, PHD degree or has equivalent professional experience. It is open to visual artists, naturalists, writers, and musicians. Selection by the Residency Committee will include consideration in three categories:
* Emerging Artist/Writer/Naturalist
* Mid-Career Artist/Writer/Naturalist
* Artist/Writer/Naturalist on Sabbatical
They also offer a residency in Printmaking.
Application Deadline: April 21, 2009
You may apply for either a fall or spring residency of up to four months. Please specify on your application your preference (October-January or February-May). Periods shorter than four months may be available, but preference will be given to applications for four-month residencies. Please indicate if you have had a residency at a non-profit arts institution in the last two years. This may be considered as a determining factor between two equally qualified applicants.

Welcome to Mira's List

This blog provides information on upcoming grants, fellowships and residencies for artists, writers, composers, and media artists. It is for serious professionals only, from emerging to mid-career to established. I also publish information for graduate students from time to time. However, I do not publish information on exhibition or publishing opportunities, nor do I advertise artist retreats and workshops that charge money. At least that is my current policy. For more info on where to exhibit or publish, please see my links section which I try to periodically update. I sift through hundreds of search engines and websites to find opportunities for YOU dear artist. In return, I ask you to pass the information along to those who need it. Also, since this is a free blog, I don't always have the time to weed carefully through everything. If you find a grant or website or residency that is not up-to-date, is dodgy in some way, or is no longer in existence, please let me know! Also, if you stay somewhere at one of the residencies I suggest and have a good experience, I want that feedback too. Please check my FAQs at the top right side bar if you have questions before starting your search. Best wishes and happy hunting!
