The Jentel Artist Residency Program offers dedicated individuals a supportive environment in which to further their creative development. Here artists and writers experience unfettered time to allow for thoughtful reflection and meditation on the creative process in a setting that preserves the agricultural and historical integrity of the land.
Eligibility
Residencies are intended as professional development opportunities for visual artists in all creative disciplines, writers in non-fiction, fiction, and poetry as well as composers across musical genres. Proposals for self-directed, creative residencies must be compatible with available working studio spaces, facilities, and resources. Artistic merit and promise are the basis for selections. Mature as well as emerging artists are encouraged to apply.
- Applicants enrolled in a degree program at the time of application are ineligible for residency.
- Applicants over age 25 residing in the United States and US citizens abroad are eligible.
Duration of Residency
All residencies start on the 15th of each month and end on the 7th of the next month. No exceptions.
Six (6) residencies are awarded each session.
Awards
A rotating panel of experts and professionals in the arts and humanities independently reviews applications and supporting materials. Final awards of residencies are at the discretion of Jentel. In some instances, artists, composers and writers are invited.
