replenish residencies 2025-26

Replenish Residencies provide one to two week restorative visioning retreats to South Louisiana BIPOC artists and culture bearers. In light of the many racial disparities present in our society at large and the arts economy specifically, we offer these residencies to provide time to rest and restore, vision, and create. The call is open to BIPOC artists and culture bearers from South Louisiana who have not attended a residency before.

The Studio focuses on interrelated areas of programming, including residencies for artists and scholars, forest restoration, and science-inspired art engagement for children and adults. We center interdependence, wonder, care, and inclusivity in all of our work and believe the essential and transformative powers of art and the natural environment are central to a thriving future for all.

Dates:

Residencies are one to two weeks and will be scheduled between August 2025 – June 2026 according to the mutual availability of the artist and A Studio in the Woods. Applications due April 7, 2025 with notification by May 27, 2025.
