Creekside Arts

Creekside Arts Retreats Deadline: 01 Dec 2026 Country: United States CREEKSIDE ARTS is a collective of friends, neighbors and artists who collaborate to support the arts and community in Humboldt county. CREEKSIDE ARTS Retreats offer artists stays of 2 to 4 weeks. This is an opportunity to reflect, create and explore in an inspiring setting among the Redwoods of Northern California. Preference will be given to applications that demonstrate a project focus on what is dear to our community: Land, place, community, nature, climate, education, and social and political consciousness and justice. We welcome artists from a broad range of creative disciplines. The retreats are an opportunity for artists to focus on their work and enjoy the beauty of the surroundings. There are 8 members of the Creekside Arts collective, who live on the Creekside Arts grounds. Artists are invited to make themselves at home on the Creekside Arts grounds, join our weekly community gatherings, and focus on their art in a beautiful, natural setting. Resident artists are asked to participate in a causal showing or artist panel at the end of their stay. There may or may not be other visiting artists here at the same time. Duration of residency Retreats are a minimum of two weeks. Longer stays encouraged. Creekside Arts will begin to accept applications May 1, 2026, for stays starting in June, through December 1, 2026. We also offer an annual 3-week Spring Residency Program (May/June), a more curated, structured, and collaborative program that requires a full 3-week stay. Please inquire directly if you are interested in a residency opportunity with a more guided, interactive and collaborative focus. https://creeksidearts.org/residency/ Accommodation Each artist has a fully equipped private living space.
