Quarterly: Salon Series featuring cross-genre artists, musicians, journalists, academics and activists/mutual aid facilitators exchanging ideas and exploring meaning making

We also offer self-funded retreats year-round, so there are multiple ways of making creative space in the 50-acre woods.

We've also got a list of residency and recording alumni - a wide array of artists, academics, writers, composers, theatre-makers and visionaries that have spent time on a ridge top in the woods of Indiana, where you might find yourself one day.

organizational sponsorships

You or your organization can sponsor a one-time or annual residency, camp or event, via our non-profit, which may be tax-deductible, based on 501(c)3 guidelines. It's an incredible way to support local youth artists, thinkers, and spark up-leveling of a creative's work! Contact us to tailor the perfect organizational residency, in any genre, artform, or focus.
