How did you hear about this program?*
Did you read the 2026 Residency Brochure before applying?*

Yes, I have read the brochure and I understand the programNo, I have not yet read it carefullyYes, but I am still unsure about what the 2026 program will be like
Would this be your first residency? (we support emerging, mid-career, and advanced artists alike)*

YesNo
Which residency are you applying for?*
We understand that you are multi- and interdisciplinary! Please choose a category that best fits your intentions while in-residence. This helps us determine which studio space you would need.
Short Bio. Please submit your bio in 800 words or less. *
If awarded a residency, your bio will be added to our artists page and used to advertise your Applebarn talk, courses, etc.

Residency Dates
What is your ideal length of residency and when? This information will be used by the selection committee to award scholarships and assign residency dates. PLEASE NOTE that it is your responsibility to inform us by email if your availability changes between the time you submit this application and when our selection process begins in January. Once residency dates are awarded and assigned they cannot be changed. *
We support residencies of 2 weeks or longer. We do our best to accommodate an applicant's preference, but flexibility is important. PLEASE NOTE all residencies begin and end on a Monday.
What months are you available for a residency? Select all that apply.*

JulyAugust
Do you have any blackout dates or spans of time within those months that you are unavailable? Do you have a hard stop or hard start date? Keep in mind that all residencies begin and end on a Monday. Please let us know here (i.e. "I selected May but I teach until May 15th and cannot attend until May 20th at the earliest" -or- "I selected June and July but I'll be on vacation from July 10 - 20").*
We are unique in that we provide residencies for dates that work for you, but this process is very complex and once we assign dates in February, it is unlikely that we can change or adjust.
