ARTIST IN RESIDENCE
PROGRAM
Facilitating Exploration of the Natural World Through Art
Our Artist in Residence program brings teaching artists of various disciplines, media, cultures, experiences, and age to work with elementary school and graduate students alike. Visiting professional artists bring individual and collaborative art projects that enable students to express themselves and discover new things about their world.
We are no longer accepting applications for the 2024-2025 school year. Applications received will be considered for the 2025-2026 school year.
IslandWood acknowledges that the land on which we gather is within the ancestral territory of the suqʷabš “People of Clear Salt Walter” (Suquamish People). Expert fisherman, canoe builders and basket weavers, the suqʷabš live in harmony with the lands and waterways along Washington’s Central Salish Sea as they have for thousands of years. Here, the suqʷabš live and protect the land and waters of their ancestors for future generations as promised by the Point Elliot Treaty of 1855. While the majority of our work takes place on Suquamish and Duwamish (dxʷdɐwʔabʃ) land, we also conduct programs on the land of the Snohomish (sduhúbʃ), Puyallup (spuyaləpabš), Muckleshoot (buklshuhls), Skokomish (sqoqc’bes), and S’Klallam (nəxʷsƛ̕ay̕əm) peoples.
