Ponder Residency

For the Ponder Residency, we do not impose any expectations of productivity on the artists. There are no project or production requirements. We think it's important to normalize rest, idea generation, gestation, and time for artists to just be present without the expectations of output. As artists ourselves, we understand how important it is to plant the seeds of creativity and to have time to explore and cultivate ideas.

  • 1 - 2 week creative/project/retreat/research-based residencies.
