The _Dome House Al & Mickey Quinlan Artist Residency_ is a single-artist, application-based program focused on the visual arts. The residency was was launched in 2021 as a partnership between the Miller Art Museum and Quinlan family, and invites emerging and mid-career artists located from the Midwest to Door County to reside for 8 weeks each year. The iconic structure includes an open-concept residence and a sizable working studio for a unique live/work experience. This collaborative partnership serves the broader mission of the Dome House, which is to provide artists working with space for creativity, contemplation, and inspiration. The artist will dedicate at least five hours per week to public outreach activities, which can be on or off-site. From workshops to artist talks and exciting programming, these events offer invaluable opportunities to foster meaningful dialogue between the artist, residents, and visitors.

**STIPEND & SUPPORT:** Artist in residence (AIR) will receive a $500 stipend to support creative endeavors while in residence at the Dome House Al & Mickey Quinlan Artist Residency. The stipend is to be used for professional supplies, shipping of supplies and artwork, and, if applicable, other residency-related expenses outside of the Miller’s stated obligations. The stipend can also be used for personal expenses outside of the residency. No receipts or accounting of expenditures are required.

  
**HOUSING & MEALS:** AIR from outside of the Door County area will have living quarters in a semi-private loft space at the Dome House, which also houses the adjacent studio/work space. The space is fully furnished. Basic cooking equipment will be provided; AIR will be responsible for groceries and preparation of meals. AIR is expected to cover personal living expenses, additional materials and supplies above those furnished and any other expenses relating to the cost of producing work incurred while in the program. Because of the unique nature of its design, the Dome House is prone to temperature fluctuations; artists should be prepared for this, especially cooler temperatures during early fall, and plan accordingly.

  
**FACILITIES, STUDIO SPACE & EQUIPMENT:** The space includes free computer and internet access and all utilities. Due to the unique nature of the home, the facility is not accessible. An industrial sink, work tables and wall space are available.
