Eligibility

Our Artist Residency offerings are for adult artists of all ages and disciplines seeking space, time, and a place to focus on their art. We are specifically looking for artists confident in their creative processes, comfortable living in community, and willing to camp out for the duration of their stay. Sable is off-the-grid! We live in the woods in Vermont’s Green Mountains. There is no electricity or wifi. We invite Artists to depart from their often hyper-connected routines in order to engage deeply with their surroundings and cultivate a community of care for each other focused around growing food & creating art.

Program Description

Sable offers 10 Day Artist Residencies & 2 - 5 Day Guest Artist Residencies in June, July & September ART: Our residents have the entire Sable Land as their playground/studio for the duration of their stay. Sable can be a place to deepen your art practice, spark collaborations with fellow residents, & unplug from distractions in the way only living off-grid can offer. LAND: Since the inception of Sable, an integral part of our residency has been physical engagement with the communal spaces/land. These days, that looks like Garden Time! This consists of 6 hours of work in our gardens over the course of a residency (to grow the food we eat!) COMMUNITY: Sable is a uniquely community-oriented residency. All of our studio spaces are communally shared, & artists get to know and connect deeply with the other members of their cohort. Each residency culminates in our Food & Art Friday public event, where artists are invited to share their work & connect with the local VT community.
