ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE program is keyed to the artist in any media who wishes to visit the Keweenaw and have a studio during their time here. They will be able to work, take advantage of events, and mentor with the artists in the area as they wish, keeping their studio as a vase for their stay and still be able to take in the beauty of the Keweenaw with all its art, history, culture and scenic shore line.
High speed internet access is available throughout the building. The studio space is limited, make your plans early. Sign-up is on a first-come, first-serve basis.
