2026 Lighthouse Works Fellowship - $1750 and Six Weeks on Fishers Island, NY

The Lighthouse Works Fellowship is a six‑week, fully funded residency located on Fishers Island, New York. Fellows receive private housing, shared kitchen and living spaces, and a private studio located a short walk from the house. The program provides $1,750 in financial support, meals prepared by staff, and access to a wood‑and‑metal fabrication shop and kiln. Artists of any discipline and career stage are encouraged to apply. The application window opens each year from September 1 to October 1, with selection panels meeting in mid‑October through December. Fellows are expected to pursue their work and participate in two public events—a talk and an open studio—bookending the residency.
