Artist Residency Program
A Chance to Explore, Create, and Share
The Graylag Artist Residency is designed to foster the intersection of creativity and nature. Located in the scenic Graylag Nature Preserve in rural New England, this residency offers artists an immersive environment where creativity can thrive in direct connection with the natural world. Through this residency, we seek to cultivate a vibrant exchange of ideas between visiting artists and our local community. By providing artists with time and space to create, reflect, and collaborate, we offer a rare opportunity for artistic growth and community engagement.
This residency is more than a retreat—it is a catalyst for knowledge sharing, collaboration, and inspiration. We believe that creativity flourishes in relationship with the land, and we invite artists to explore how nature informs their work while also contributing to the community through shared experiences. Whether through workshops, talks, or new ways of engaging with the environment, artists will play a vital role in strengthening the ties between art, nature, and conservation.
2025 marks the launch of the Graylag Artist Residency. As this is our inaugural year, we are looking for artists who are not only excited to immerse themselves in their work but also open to the opportunity to help shape the foundation of this program. We encourage applicants to bring a spirit of flexibility, enthusiasm, and collaboration. This is a unique chance to be part of something from the ground up—to influence a program that we hope will become a lasting source of inspiration for both artists and the Graylag community.
As we embark on this journey, we welcome artists who share our commitment to environmental stewardship and creative exploration. Together, we will create a residency that nurtures artistic expression, fosters professional growth, and deepens our collective connection to the natural world.
