ARTIST PROGRAM
Next residencies begin
November 1st, 2023 - March 1st, 2024
THE OASIS CABIN ARTIST RESIDENCY PROGRAM WAS CREATED TO PROVIDE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR ARTISTS AND THINKERS TO COMMUNE WITH THE HIGH DESERT, THE SEASONAL ELEMENTS, AND THEIR WORK. WE WELCOME ARTISTS AND THINKERS ACROSS ALL DISCIPLINES TO APPLY INCLUDING PAINTERS, ILLUSTRATORS, WRITERS, DESIGNERS, MUSICIANS, POETS, SCULPTERS, FURNITURE DESIGN/WOODWORKING, PHOTOGRAPHERS, ETCETERA.
WE OFFER A COST-FREE LODGING SPACE TO RETREAT, FOCUS, OBSERVE, PRACTICE AND MAKE. OUR VISION IS TO HELP CREATIVES THRIVE AND GROW THEIR PRACTICE IMMERSED IN THE BEAUTIFUL QUIETUDE AND VAST RICHNESS OF THE OREGON HIGH DESERT. APPROXIMATELY 5 ARTISTS WILL BE IN RESIDENCY DURING THE FALL/WINTER TERM.
ARTISTS OF ALL DISCIPLINES ARE INVITED TO APPLY. WE KINDLY ASK THAT PARTICIPANTS OF OUR ARTIST IN RESIDENCY PROGRAM CONTRIBUTE A PIECE FROM THEIR TIME IN WASCO COUNTY TO OUR PERMANENT COLLECTION. THE RESIDENCY LASTS APPROXIMATELY 3-7 DAYS AND CULMINATES WITH A VIRTUAL AND/OR PUBLIC SHOW-AND-TELL. RESIDENCIES BEGIN NOW, APPLY WITHIN. A SELECTION ANNOUNCEMENT WILL COME HENCE FORTH.
WHILE WE’D LOVE TO WELCOME FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO ACCOMPANY YOU IN YOUR CABIN WE CAN’T DURING YOUR RESIDENCY AS IT’S OUR INTENTION TO ALLOW ARTISTS TO DELVE FULLY INTO THEIR WORK WITHOUT DISTRACTION. DOGS ARE WELCOME WITH SPECIAL PRIOR ARRANGEMENTS AND A CLEANING FEE.
