*Yaddo Summer Session Artist Residencies: Deadline January 1.


The artists' community Yaddo encourages artists from all nations and of 

all backgrounds to apply for admission for its residency program. 

Established in 1900 by Spencer and Katrina Trask, Yaddo has a simple 

mission: to offer creative artists uninterrupted time to work, good 

working conditions, and a supportive environment. Residencies vary in 

length, lasting up to two months. The average stay is five weeks, and 

the minimum is two weeks. There is no fee for residencies. Artists who 

qualify for Yaddo residencies are working at the professional level in 

their fields; an abiding principle at Yaddo is that applications for 

residency are judged on the quality of the artists' work and 

professional promise. The January 1 deadline is for residencies starting 

mid-May of the 2007 through February of 2008.  For complete information 

and to download application materials, visit the web site,

MacDowell Colony Summer Residency Sessions -  Deadline January 15.

 

The MacDowell Colony was founded in Peterborough, New Hampshire, in 

1907, with a mission to nurture the arts by offering creative 

individuals of the highest talent an inspiring environment in which to 

produce enduring works of the imagination. More than 250 writers, 

composers, visual artists, photographers, printmakers, filmmakers, 

architects, interdisciplinary artists, and those collaborating on 

creative works come to the Colony each year from all parts of the United 

States and abroad. Colonists receive room, board, and the exclusive use 

of a studio. In addition to ideal working conditions, 

artists-in-residence benefit from the experience of living in a 

community of exceptional artists. The maximum length of residence is two 

months; an average stay is four weeks. There are between 20 and 30 

artists at MacDowell at any given time; arrivals and departures are 

ongoing. For more information and complete application guidelines, visit
