In Cahoots Residency is a place of collaboration and creative energy, a rare opportunity for uninterrupted work time as well as dialog with other artists. The residency provides housing and studio space to emerging and professional artists working in a variety of mediums. Our pastoral location and light-filled studios for book art, letterpress, writing, and printmaking inspire artists to make new discoveries and leave with a renewed passion for their work.
 

What Is A Residency?


A residency is a place where artists and writers can go to work on their art... Residencies are research-and-development labs for the arts, providing artists with time, space, and support for the creation of new work and the exploration of new ideas. Supporting individuals in the creation of new work is essential to human progress — not as a luxury, not as a leisure activity, but as a vital and necessary force in society. Artists’ residencies are not about retreat; they are about advancement. Advancing creativity. Advancing human progress. Advancing the way we examine the world.
