Upon jury review invitations will be offered on a rolling basis for the February and September 2020 residency.

November 15, 2019 for February 2020

Deadline August 1, for September, 2020

Application will include resume/cv, a short proposal for research, development or project to include 3 works samples and the name/contact info of 2 professional references. Applications are juried by a rotating group of professionals. Applicants will be selected by the merit of the proposal.

Consideration will be given to make sure a secluded, jungle environment is a good fit for an individual's temperament. People who are self-directed, independent, self-reliant, resourceful and who appreciate nature will thrive. Time does flow in a different way, at times things do not unfold according to plan requiring resilience and adaptability.
