Artist Residency Program
Who We Serve
Now accepting applications for summer/fall 2026!
We invite artists of all disciplines to apply for a two-week, self-directed residency at Graylag Nature Preserve in rural New Hampshire. This residency offers artists uninterrupted time to create while immersed in a serene natural setting. Residents will have access to miles of hiking trails, peaceful lake waterfront, and a private, fully-furnished cabin with a kitchen and bathroom.
We welcome applications from artists at any stage of their career—emerging, mid-career, or established—worldwide.
Applicants must be 21 or older and comfortable navigating steep, natural terrain, as our grounds are not fully accessible. Artists must bring their own supplies and cover their transportation costs to the preserve. We seek artists who are deeply connected to nature and passionate about the conservation of wild spaces. In addition to their creative work, residents will contribute to the community by offering a talk, workshop, demonstration, or other form of programming for visitors. Artists with experience in community engagement and innovative approaches to connecting people with art and nature are especially encouraged to apply.
If you are an artist looking for a retreat into nature to explore, create, and share your work in a meaningful way, we invite you to apply.
