The peaceful environment and informal atmosphere provide residents with undisturbed time to concentrate on their work. The Watershed experience encourages the exchange of ideas, collaboration, experimentation, exploration, and self-inquiry . Up to twenty artists per session work, eat, and live in the intimate community setting. All sessions are open to participants.
Priority is given to early applicants.
This program is a way for professional artists to arrange a residency with their peers. Artists who work in any media are welcome. Additional artists may join a previously formed AIA session simply by applying for that session. There are also partially funded residencies available. All artists are selected by a review committee.
