Artist-in-Residence Program

Rocky Mountain National Park is a gorgeous place just down the road a bit from me. Today it was announced that they are accepting applications for their 2009 summer Artist-in-Residence program.

Applications are due by Dec. 1, 2008.

Painters, photographers, sculptors, composers and poets are among the artists who have participated in this program.

The participants give two public presentations as part of the program. They stay for two weeks at the William Allen White cabin. In exchange for the privilege of staying in the cabin, artists are requested to donate a piece that is representative of their stay. The piece is to be donated within one year of participation.

Sounds like a wonderful experience!

To read more about the program or to download a brochure and/or application, go to the Rocky Mountain National Park website.
