Program Description

The Open Wabi Artist Residency Program, located in a 100-year-old factory building in rural Ohio, offers emerging and established artists the time, space, and environment to encourage growth and experimentation in their practice. The residency is designed to allow artists to take risks and pursue new projects and ideas. While in residence, artists are encouraged to pursue their own work amidst a group of peers. Open Wabi facilitates this by providing a 20-acre property with large studios, unique spaces for installation, basic living facilities, and the opportunity for collaboration and critique with visiting artists and critics. Living accommodation options include: Private Room – $950 Private Cabin – $750 Camping – $650 Dinner is provided by Open Wabi on Sunday evenings. Otherwise, the artists are asked to purchase and provide their own meals, which may be prepared in our shared kitchen. Group dinners and discussion are encouraged in the evenings.
