Application Deadline: January 11, 2011
The I-Park Foundation, Inc., a 450-acre natural woodland retreat in East Haddam, CT, announces its eleventh season hosting its multi-disciplinary residency program. Self-directed artists' residencies will be offered from May through November 2011. Most sessions are four weeks in duration. In addition to Music Composition/Sound Sculpture, the following disciplines participate: Visual (including Environmental) Art, Moving Image, Creative Writing and Landscape/Garden Design. Work samples are evaluated through a competitive, juried process.
There is a $30 application processing fee required. Accepted artists are responsible for their own work materials as well as transportation to and from the area. The facility is otherwise offered at no cost to accepted artists, including a basic meal program where most, though not all, of the food is provided.
Accommodations at I-Park include comfortable private living quarters in an 1850's era farmhouse and a private studio on the grounds. The music studio has, in addition to an acoustic piano, a selection of digital keyboards as well as a growing collection of peripheral devices and software for recording, sequencing and sound manipulation. There is also a modest collection of unusual percussion and other instruments for use by our composers.
International applicants are welcome. To defray the cost of travel, six $750.00 grants will be offered in 2011 to international artists whose work is held in particularly high regard by the Grant Committee.
For details, visit i-park.org.
In 2011, I-Park will also be hosting its third Environmental Art Biennale as well as a summer Special Inter-Disciplinary Projects residency, in which music composers/sound sculptors are eligible to participate. Application and program materials for these separate events will be available online in late December.
