Artist Residency Summer Session 2025 - Prairie Ronde Artist Residency (Due Mar. 1)
Artist Residency Summer Session 2025 - Prairie Ronde Artist Residency
Deadline: March 1st, 2025
We’re looking for individuals who are highly independent, engaged and curious. We do not limit our residency to any specific medium, but rather are looking for diverse artists who can creatively interact with The Mill.
We host three sessions annually and accept 2 – 4 residents per session. Accepted residents receive a stipend of $2,000 for 5 – 6 weeks, a $500 travel grant and private housing. We work with residents to share their work with the community (a gallery show, public workshop or other).
Prairie Ronde is hosted by The Mill at Vicksburg, a redevelopment project of the former Lee Paper Company mill, in the historic village of Vicksburg, Michigan.
We provide artists from a range of disciplines a 5 – 6 week residency with the goal of engaging with The Mill and its surrounding 80 acres of property. We have three residency sessions per year: Spring, Summer and Fall. There is a $25 fee to apply.
WHAT WE OFFER:
$2,000 stipend upon completion of the residency
$500 travel grant
Private housing
Gallery show in downtown Vicksburg
Video documentation
Membership to the Mug Club at the Distant Whistle Brewery
WHAT WE EXPECT:
Prairie Ronde is a process-based residency. Our aim is for independently driven artists to explore and grow their craft while creatively engaging with the space that we have to offer. While we are process-based, we ask that artists donate a piece of work produced during their time at the residency to our permanent collection.
