Bernheim Artist in Residence
About this opportunity
Bernheim Arboretum and Research Forest in Kentucky selects up to four visual artists each year for residencies that engage with its landscape. One residency is reserved for an artist living in Kentucky or nearby Southern Indiana counties, and one for an artist whose work addresses environmental issues and the climate crisis. Residents live on site and can take up to a year to deliver work; completed artwork is not required and proposals are not binding.
Application tips
Plan for about six to eight weeks on site, which can be split into two stays of at least three weeks each. A car is strongly recommended, as public transport is limited and the nearest major grocery store is 8 miles away. Meals are not provided, and you should bring any specialised tools. Read the 2027 Request for Proposals before applying through SlideRoom.
