Artist Residency Program

The Graylag Artist Residency is designed to foster the intersection of creativity and nature. Located in the scenic Graylag Nature Preserve in rural New England, this residency offers artists an immersive environment where creativity can thrive in direct connection with the natural world. Through this residency, we seek to cultivate a vibrant exchange of ideas between visiting artists and our local community. By providing artists with time and space to create, reflect, and collaborate, we offer a rare opportunity for artistic growth and community engagement. This residency is more than a retreat—it is a catalyst for knowledge sharing, collaboration, and inspiration. We believe that creativity flourishes in relationship with the land, and we invite artists to explore how nature informs their work while also contributing to the community through shared experiences. Whether through workshops, talks, or new ways of engaging with the environment, artists will play a vital role in strengthening the ties between art, nature, and conservation.
