Monson Arts’ residency program supports emerging and established artists and writers by providing them time and space to devote to their creative practices. During each of our 2-week and 4-week programs throughout the year, a cohort of 5 visual artists and 5 writers are invited to immerse themselves in small town life at the edge of Maine’s North Woods and focus intensely on their work within a creative and inspiring environment.
The Abbott Watts Residency for Photographers offers access to the private photography studio and darkroom of Todd Watts in nearby Blanchard, adjacent to the former home of Berenice Abbott and takes place concurrently with the other sessions.
