Porkies Artist-in-Residence Application Period Opens

Applications are being accepted for the Porcupine Mountains Artist-in-Residence Program.

The Artist-in-Residence Program is open to artists and artisans whose work can be influenced by the unique wilderness setting of Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park. 

Each year a number of artists are selected for residencies lasting a minimum of two weeks. Artists are given the use of a rustic cabin, and a three-night backcountry permit so they can experience the park.

During their residency, artists will be asked to share their experiences with the public. The artists are required to contribute an art piece representative of their stay.

Applications for this spring, summer, fall, and next winter, are due February 14th. Application materials may be found here.
