Studio In The Woods Restoration Residency

Deadline January 4

A Studio in the Woods continues to offer Restoration Residencies into 2008 in order to give New Orleans artists the opportunity to rebuild their artistic lives and by extension contribute to and even inspire the rebuilding of our city.

Month-long Restoration Residencies are specifically designed for local visual artists, musicians, composers, writers and performing artists who experienced significant loss due to the hurricane and the failure of the federal levees, and who are in the process of reconstructing their lives and artistic careers here in New Orleans.

Restoration Residencies provide lodging, food, studio space and uninterrupted time in the rustic, natural setting in a bottomland hardwood forest on the West Bank of New Orleans. Also provided are transportation costs to and from New Orleans and within the city, a $2000 stipend and supply costs up to $1000.
