2009 Environmental Art Residency Program
I-Park
East Haddam, Connecticut
August 17 – August 31, 2009
September 2 – September 16, 2009


I-Park will host an international environmental art program on the grounds of its 450-acre artists’ community in rural East Haddam, Connecticut (U.S.). The program will consist of two, two-week focused residency sessions comprised of environmental artists, landscape/garden designers and other visual, music and performance-based artists whose work engages the natural landscape. A public event will be scheduled for September 19, 2009 to showcase the work.

The two identical residency sessions will be scheduled for:

August 17 – August 31, 2009
September 2 – September 16, 2009

Artists/designers are invited to submit proposals for site-specific works on or about the land. Twelve artists/designers will be selected by a three-person independent panel. Artists will be awarded a grant of $1,200 plus up to an additional $1,000 for reimbursement of travel costs and/or materials.

Artists will be given space on the land to realize their environmental projects. They will also be provided with comfortable living quarters and meals for the duration of their residency.
