Annmarie welcomes artists to submit proposals for their annual summer residency program in the community arts, which runs June through August and can be flexible based on the artist’s needs. Proposals must show a strong commitment to community engagement in the design and execution of the project.
The summer residency program provides a serene place on the Western Shore of the Chesapeake Bay for visual, musical, and literary artists to design and produce a community arts project. Most artists run their project through Annmarie’s creative reuse center, called the artLAB, where artists are encouraged to incorporate recycled or repurposed materials into their project. Artists will also have access to the galleries, a private studio space, the clay studio, the 30 acre sculpture garden, the waterfront area, etc. Residencies are meant to focus on community arts projects; those that merge arts and the environment are particularly desirable.
