Residencies & Events
New Year Writing
January 15 through March 12
Deep Winter
Rounds of Writers
​
This annual residency aims to make space for self-directed work, deep focus, and restorative activity, supporting (4) writers in residence in each 7-day period. There is no expectation of product or output, but rather we offer a chance for writers to disconnect from the outer world and focus on the interior. Residents will receive housing in one of four, individual, cozy and fully equipped dwellings on The Hundredth Hill’s 50-acre wooded campus and will be invited to one group meal and one afternoon of prompt writing/sharing of works or intentions.
