Penland School of Craft Resident Artist Program

Penland’s Resident Artist Program is designed for professional craft artists who are at a pivotal moment in their creative practice or career. The residency is an opportunity for them to pursue objectives that will have a lasting effect on their work and their lives. Depending on the nature of an applicant’s goals, there are two options: a one-year project-based residency, and a three-year career transition residency.
