Artists' Communities: A Directory of Residencies That Offer Time and Space for Creativity (3rd Edition)

To awaken each morning to a day that is entirely yours is truly extraordinary. It is a difficult thing to describe — outside the realm of ordinary life, but a daily event as an artist-in-residence. My time here facilitated an intensity of focus and freedom I had never experienced previously. I discovered a tremendous amount about my studio practices, made considerable technical and conceptual progress in my work, and found lasting friendships with remarkable people.

— Jessyca Burke

The 3rd Edition of this widely-praised directory has been revised and updated to include an introduction by Robert MacNeil, an index of 347 residency pportunities worldwide, and comprehensive details on 95 residency centers, including:

season and length of residencies
number of artists in residence
application deadlines
fees and stipends
selection processes
facilities, housing, and meals
accessibility

The directory lists residency opportunities for creative individuals of all kinds – visual and performing artists, filmmakers, composers, choreographers, writers, scholars, and more. The directory includes nearly 200 photos of artists’ communities, along with lists of well-known artists who have been in residence.
