ARTIST RESIDENCIES
Yellow Barn Residencies provide the unique opportunity for musicians to develop projects of their own choosing in an environment conducive to undistracted study. Residencies are open to musicians of any age and at any stage of their career, and are fully subsidized for resident musicians.
Yellow Barn Residencies Support:
- The exploration and preparation of repertoire for performance.
- Collaborative projects which bring together performers, composers and other artists.
- Opportunities for public performance and participation in outreach activities within the local community.
Musicians may choose to work independently or with mentoring artists and scholars during their residency.
Location and Accommodations
- The Yellow Barn Residencies will take place in Putney, a historic village in southeastern Vermont.
- Rehearsal facilities are located on Yellow Barn’s summer campus at the Greenwood School, just above the village.
- Yellow Barn will provide housing within the local community.
- Meals will take place on the Greenwood School campus.
- Transportation assistance is available.
Application Information
Yellow Barn will accept applications from ensembles and individual musicians interested in pursuing either independent or collaborative projects.
Yellow Barn’s Artistic Director will consult with selected musicians to determine the length and shape of the residency. While most residencies take place during one week, the exact length of the residency is based on the project’s goals.
Deadlines
Applications for Yellow Barn Residencies are accepted on an ongoing basis. Applicants are encouraged to apply by May for residencies taking place between September and November, and by August for residencies taking place between March and May.
