About

Our overriding purpose is to provide an inspiring, energizing environment to foster creative output. Initially, we'll focus on residents and small workshops and community projects.

Our residence programs range from a weeks to six months and cover living/studio space, utilities, and dinner. Try a short recharge to get past a creative or procrastination bottleneck, or take several months to concentrate on a major project or thesis. By removing your accustomed distractions (shopping, traffic, social commitments, work routine), you can unclutter your mind and focus more directly on your craft. We invite artists, writers, musicians, and craftsmen, both student and professional.

We're currently working on the first two buildings, located in Harveyville. We'll eventually expand the Project to include our buildings in nearby Eskridge, which has facilities to accommodate larger programs: larger workshops, or small film, music or art festivals.

Prior to our official opening, we are offering extremely economical rates for residents (monthly rates that average under $15/day, including dinner).
