Center for the Arts Evergreen (CAE), located in Evergreen, Colorado is seeking applicants for its Artist in Residency Program (AIR). The Artist-in-Residence program offers the opportunity for emerging and established artists to foster creativity and community engagement while developing both new works and works-in-progress. CAE welcomes artists working across disciplines and media, including visual artists, sculptors, musicians, writers, filmmakers, and more. Eligible artistic disciplines and media include drawing, painting, sculpture, dance, photography, film, video, new media, installation, fiction & nonfiction writing, spoken word/poetry and interdisciplinary. While digital media is welcomed, artists will need to bring their own equipment as the facility doesn’t offer these resources. All artist mediums are encouraged to apply. Media that produce toxic fumes as well as artwork that involves nonstop continuous loud noise are not permitted. Please contact us for further clarification on your medium.
Residents will be provided with housing, private studio space, a monthly stipend and teaching and sales opportunities in Evergreen, Colorado, a serene natural setting and a vibrant, creative community in the foothills of metro Denver. Twelve-week residencies are offered three times each year.
As part of a residency, we ask each artist to develop and facilitate a community program related to their residency plan. This provides artists with the opportunity to engage with the local community in Evergreen, CO and the suburban and rural towns beyond.
The Residency runs for three 12-week sessions, and the artist must specify their preferred 12-week session(s) in the application: If your schedule is flexible, you may note such in lieu of or in addition to exact dates in the application form.
