Pam Roberts – A Bear and Bison Artist Residency
The severe impact on artists due to the COVID-19 pandemic is undeniable. Unfortunately, many outlets of creation, and sale of artistic goods has been deemed unessential. The pandemic has thrown a wrench in the plans of many people and businesses, artists and innkeepers alike.
We would like to offer a COVID-19 safe space which allows artists to create, relax, and find inspiration.
Any person who practices any of the various creative arts. Including but not limited to, a writer, photographer, sculptor, novelist, poet, musician, painter, animator, or filmmaker may apply.
The works created or conceptualized at A Bear and Bison Canadian Country Inn, will be highlighted in our newsletter, website, and on social media. This will provide both a new audience for the artist’s work, and invigorate our online presence. We encourage the artists to promote, show, or sell their work in whichever way they desire, once the work has been promoted on our platforms. Linking back to A Bear and Bison’s website and social media whenever possible.
Artist Residency includes.
- A 2 day gift certificate for A Bear and Bison Canadian Country Inn for artist and 1 guest. Mid week.
- Three course, crystal and china served breakfast delivered to your room each morning.
- Promotion on our website, social media and newsletter.
How to apply.
Send sophiajoym@gmail.com an email including a portfolio, short project proposal and timeline.
- Portfolio may be a link to a website or social media, a collection of previous works etc.
