KHN Center for the Arts (Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts)

About

The Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts in Nebraska City offers a supportive environment for artists across disciplines such as visual arts, writing, music, and interdisciplinary fields. Founded with the mission to support the creative process of artists through its residency program, the Center provides facilities that nurture both the creation and contemplation aspects of art-making. Residencies range from 2 to 8 weeks, accommodating up to seventy artists annually, both established and emerging, from around the globe. Each resident is provided with a private studio, comfortable housing, and a weekly stipend of $175 to cover living expenses. The selection process is juried by professionals within each discipline, emphasizing the quality of work samples and statements submitted by applicants. KHN not only facilitates focused work through its ample studio spaces and serene environment but also encourages community interaction and public engagement. Unfortunately, the facilities do not allow pets, and overnight visitors are restricted to ensure a professional and uninterrupted working environment for all residents. This residency is ideal for artists seeking a blend of solitude and community, providing a unique opportunity to delve deep into their projects away from daily distractions.
