SPRINGDALE — Does Zion National Park inspire you? If so, share your inspiration with others through Zion National Park’s Artist in Residence program. Applications must be submitted by Monday.
Eligibility and applying
All visual (painters, photographers, sculptures, etc.), performing (drama, dance, music, composition, etc.) and literary artists are invited to apply. International applications are not accepted at this time. If you are eligible, submit an online application before 11:59 p.m. Monday.
Zion provides housing for a one-month, highly independent residency.
Resident artists will:
- Present two public programs tailored to their medium, interest, experience and audience.
- Host periodic, open studio hours to interact with visitors.
- Submit an original piece of work within six months of leaving Zion.
This art piece may be placed in the park’s permanent museum or interpretive collections or, in partnership with the Zion National Park Forever Project, may be used to financially support the Artist in Residence Program.
Learn more about the selection process and see past artists’ work on Zion National Park’s website.
