Facilities include printmaking, papermaking, artist's books, photography, letterpress, offset, and clay. Our programs are designed to support artists in the various stages of their careers. To that end we offer grant and fellowship opportunities, intensive workshops, internships and studio rental. Artist's Fellowships: Fellowship opportunities are available in water based screen printing, intaglio, photography, papermaking, letterpress and clay. Fellowship awards are designed to provide artists with concentrated work time to explore new ideas in a dynamic and cooperative community of women artists, in a rural environment. Fellows have unlimited access to the studio of their choice, and may work in two to eight week sessions from September through June. Fellowship awards subsidize a portion of the studio operating expenses. The cost to fellowship recipients is $200 per week plus materials, (about one fifth the actual cost of the fellowship), and includes housing. TO APPLY: send a proposal, resume, ten slides of work, proposed dates and length of fellowship, studio requested and an SASE for return of materials.
