Fiber Arts Residency at Gael Roots Community Farm with an accumulating event at Catskill Art Space on September 13th

Jointly hosted by Gael Roots and Catskill Art Space (CAS), artists are encouraged to utilize the available plants and wool on the farm and engage with the fiber flax process. During the residency artists are invited to participate in farm activities (including farm-to-table meals) and interact with the farm team, local artists Samm Kunce and Amy Gillingham and farmer Iris Fen Gillingham, and the people that visit the farm. The artist is provided a private bedroom and shared bathroom, with three meals daily. They will have their own sun-filled south-facing 19 x 7’ studio in the farmhouse for nine days over September 6 - 13, 2025. CAS will provide an artist honorarium of $1,500, which can be applied to travel. Artists are invited to share their experience on the farm and present their work and practice to the public at CAS on the culmination of the residency on September 13, 2025. More details on the September 13th event to come.
