Deadline: October 31, 2011 (POSTMARK)

Artist-in-Residence Program
Cheraw State Park

Cheraw SC
2012 SEASON


The Artist-in-Residence program provides artists with the opportunity to gain inspiration from the natural and cultural resources of South Carolina State Parks. The Artist-in-Residence program is open to all artists whose work can interpret the park’s natural and/or cultural resources. We offer painters, photographers, potters, sculptors, weavers and other artists the opportunity to capture the natural and historical resources of South Carolina State Parks. Collaborative proposals will be considered.

THE SELECTION PROCESS
A jury will be comprised of state park representatives. The selected artist will be assigned a South Carolina State Park with overnight cabin facilities. Their residency date will be determined by the availability of the cabins per their assigned park. The Artist-In-Residence program is open to all art forms, but those that manipulate or disturb the park’s resources, or utilize materials from endangered or threatened species will be excluded. Collecting materials from state park property is not permitted.

Selections are made without regard to race, religion, marital status, sex, age or national origin.

Application fee: $15 application fee (nonrefundable)
