Open call Details

Penland’s Winter Residency program is a short-term residency opportunity for artists seeking to work independently in one of our 16 media specific studios during Penland’s quiet season. Practicing artists of all backgrounds and at any stage of their career are encouraged to apply for a 2-week or 4-week session. Shared studio access is provided to a small number of artists each session; we invite enough people to encourage conversation and creative camaraderie, but not so many that focused time in the studio is compromised. Residents’ time is their own; there are no workshops, critiques, or required activities. Our goal is to support creative experimentation by offering artists the time, space, and equipment they need to advance professional development. Penland Winter Residencies are for: Artists needing access to facilities for research and development that can be supported by Penland’s well-equipped studios Art educators and administrators who are seeking focused studio time during a winter break or sabbatical Collaborating artists who want to work on a specific project or simply alongside one another in order to share technical expertise and/or creative inspiration Art professionals who need time away from daily responsibilities and distractions to focus on a creative project
