Application Deadline: January 11, 2010 (postmark date)



I-Park announces its tenth season hosting The Artists' Enclave. Self-directed artists' residencies will be offered from May through November 2010, with possible off-season sessions in April and December. Most sessions are four weeks in duration. Residencies will be offered to visual (including digital) artists, music composers, environmental artists, landscape and garden designers, creative writers and architects. Work samples are evaluated through a competitive, juried process.



There is a $25 application processing fee required and artists are responsible for their own work materials as well as transportation to and from the area. I-Park is introducing a modest food program for 2010 where most, though not all, of the food will be provided. The facility is otherwise offered at no cost to accepted artists.



I-Park is a 450-acre natural woodland retreat in rural East Haddam, Connecticut. Accommodations include comfortable private living quarters in an 1850's era farmhouse, shared bathroom facilities and a private studio on the grounds. An abundance of power tools and equipment, site materials, an electric kiln, wireless internet and library facilities are provided.



International applicants are welcome. To defray the cost of travel, six $750.00 grants will be offered in 2010 to international artists whose work is held in particularly high regard by the grant committee.



For additional project information, go to the website: www.i-park.org. Application instructions will be available there in mid-November 2009 (Residency Section).
