Buffalo National River
	Artist in Residence Selection Process and Application | | | | | | | | |
	A panel of professionals from various disciplines and park representatives will choose the finalists. The selection is based on artistic integrity, a willingness to donate a finished piece of work inspired by their stay, and the artist’s ability to relate and interpret the park through their work. We consider all forms of art except those that manipulate or disturb the park’s environment or are added to the park's physical features. Selections are made without regard to race, religion, marital status, sex, age or national origin. The facilities used for this program are not wheelchair accessible. Pets are not allowed. Applications for the Artist-in-Residence program (three weeks long) must be postmarked by January 31 each year. Residencies are in spring (March – May), summer (June – August), and fall (September – November). Please send an application consisting of the following: A one to two page resume and summary of creative works. A sample of recent work (I.E. six slides from visual artists, cassette recordings from musicians, 1/2" VHS videotape from performing artists, a brief manuscript, short story, article, or poetry from writers). A statement from the applicant explaining what he/she hopes to achieve from a residency at Buffalo National River and how this residency will support the image, resources, and significance of the national river. List your preferred period of residence.  There will be a writers-only residency during the summer in addition to the regular summer residency.
