Azule Artist Residency Mountain Retreat (Rolling)

Azule Artist Residency Mountain Retreat
Deadline: Rolling

As an emerging community-based organization, Azule has developed a residency program for performers, writers, architects, builders, musicians, and artists of all types. Located on 35 rural acres in Western North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains, our facility is the result of decades of work by local craftsmen, using predominantly locally harvested or reused materials and constructed with traditional techniques.

We invite residents to join us to enjoy a retreat from everyday life where there is time and space to relax, dream, and create.

WHO SHOULD APPLY?

  • Emerging as well as established artists will be accepted

  • Artists must be 18 years old or older

  • Artists working in most media will be considered, including experimental media; however, artists working with toxic materials, hazardous machinery, etc. will not be considered due to limitations within the building.

  • Artists must be ready to enjoy working in a shared open studio setting and be comfortable working alongside other artists.

  • Artists may be expected to share space with Azule programming during the course of their residency, these may include community potluck events, guest tours, artist talks or demos, and workshops.

  • We accept applications from international artists, however, we can not assist with visa/funding/travel arrangements.
