Support Kaitlin’s Artist Residency at Chateau d'Orquevaux

I have the most remarkable opportunity to be an artist in residence for three weeks in the fall at Chateau d'Orquevaux-- an incredible artists residency in France.

I had applied on a whim months ago, so with a 20% acceptance rate to the program, I was taken aback that I had been accepted and awarded two grants to attend. I will receive all meals, my own room, and my own studio to work in for 3 weeks in this phenomenal place. Grateful is truly an understatement.

Admittedly, even with the grants, I still need some help covering the remaining costs + travel expenses. The total I’m raising will help significantly alleviate the costs of flights there and back, passport/travel documents/travel insurance, the train to get to and from the airport, and the remaining program fees. It is such a great opportunity to meet other artists, make connections, and develop my craft, that I would be remiss to pass this up. I sincerely appreciate each and every person who has already helped make this trip possible—both emotionally and financially.

From the website:

“Residency opportunities exist to invite artists, academicians, curators, and all manner of creative people for a time and space away from their usual environment and obligations. They provide a time of reflection, research, presentation and/or production. They also allow an individual to explore his/her practice within another community; meeting new people, using new materials, experiencing life in a new location. Art residencies emphasize the importance of meaningful and multi-layered cultural exchange and immersion into another culture."

Anything helps, truly. Thank you so much ❤️
