2010 Byrdcliffe Artist in Residency Program - Welcome
The WBG offers two residency programs: one–month Artist in Residence (AIR) residencies in summer (June–September) for visual artists, composers, playwrights, and writers of fiction, non–fiction and poetry. We offer Ceramics Residencies. Call us for more info.
Our goal is to provide solitude in community and undisturbed time in which to concentrate on independent, creative work in company of fellow artists. Professional recognition is helpful for admission, but is not essential. There are fellowships and stipends available for artists, writers, and for playwrights. (Learn more...)
