Our experimental artist residency was born in 2016 with the purpose of creating connections between artists from around the world and our Big Island community. These connections help establish a global consciousness and encourage our partners and participants to be mindful and deepen their bond with their environments, via the Big Island. We immerse our visitors in our environment and culture and teach them about food sustainability and eco-volunteering, with the hopes that they deepen their connection to our earth and its inhabitants. These talented individuals are then prepared to create ideas that resonate with and enhance our community and our hope is that they will embrace our values of mindfulness and togetherness on their journeys.
Our residency is curated and we prefer to meet our artists in person prior to an invitation to the Big Island. Please contact us with inquiries and your portfolio if you are interested.
