Artist in Residence at Hudson Gardens, Littleton — Spring 2027 ($1,100 Stipend)
South Suburban Parks and Recreation
Spring and fall artist residency of the South Suburban Public Art Committee at Hudson Gardens in Littleton, Colorado — a garden known for its seasonal landscapes, walking paths and wildlife; it balances the artist's own studio practice with open-studio time and programming for visitors. The fall 2027 round opens on 1 February.
