Creekside Arts Artist-Residency Program

Creekside Arts offers three-week residencies from May 18 to June 10 to poets, fiction writers, and creative nonfiction writers on the coastal redwoods of Freshwater, California. Residents are provided with a private room, kitchen, bathroom, and studio, as well as access to collaborative work spaces where gatherings are held with other residents, permanent members of the Creekside Arts community, and artists from the larger Humboldt County. The cost of the residency is $1,500; meals are not included. To apply, writers submitted a work sample of two to three pages, a résumé, a personal statement, an artist statement, and two references by February 15. There is no application fee.
