The Wendell Castle Work­shop (WCW) is excited to offer its inau­gural Artist-in-Resi­dency Program at the studio of the renowned artist. Partic­i­pants will live and work onsite at WCW.
WCW Bench Room

The resi­dency is intended to give artists working in wood* an inspir­ing and expertly equipped envi­ron­ment to work on one or more specific projects. Candi­dates must be capable of using WCW equip­ment inde­pen­dently. The resi­dency envi­ron­ment is conducive to indi­vid­ual work, but the studio space is commu­nal. There may be one to four resi­dents at a time at the Wendell Castle Work­shop. There will be a part-time staff person to help with any equip­ment or WCW-related ques­tions during the work day. A safety orien­ta­tion will take place with all pieces of equip­ment during the first few days. Partic­i­pants are encour­aged to leave behind one work as a dona­tion to the nonprofit. Resi­dents are invited to give a public talk near the end of their resi­den­cies to tell commu­nity members about their experience. 

Occu­pancy

Resi­dency dates and rates: Single/​Double*

January 6 – Febru­ary 14, 2025 (6 weeks) $2,100/$2,940

* Part­ners can apply sepa­rately for a double occu­pancy resi­dency. Partner appli­cants not working in wood will be provided work space but will not be allowed access to machin­ery and must supply their own tools and materials.

Housing

The resi­dency offers accom­mo­da­tions in one of two private bedrooms in the WCW build­ing on the floor above the studio. The rooms have one queen size bed each. They will have access to a fully equipped commu­nal kitchen, laundry facil­i­ties, and school library. (Please note: meals are not provided.) While the WCW is located in a village, walking distance from a grocery store and café, it is recom­mended that appli­cants have a car with appro­pri­ate license and insurance.
