Greenwich, Connecticut, United States
Foundation House, located in Greenwich, CT, offers a supportive environment for artists through its short-term residency program. This 10-day residency provides artists with a private bedroom, private or semi-private bathroom, all meals, full kitchen access, and studio space within a beautiful and expansive 75-acre property. Foundation House focuses on fostering creative individuals who can contribute to discussions and projects related to health, wellness, the environment, and social justice. Residents will engage in communal dinners to build relationships and facilitate collaboration. The residency is committed to diversity and inclusion, ensuring a welcoming space for artists from all backgrounds. Each resident receives a stipend to support their creative work during the residency.
I think the greatest benefits were the people you meet at the residency and the freedom to create any art that you want. I had some of the most meaningful and insightful conversations are art and life at the residency with the host and fellow artists. I created, I think l, some of my best art at the residency and I think that’s due to the combination of the artists and the location.
