The Bureau of Land Management is inviting artists to apply for the annual Artist-in-Residence program at the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument.
The selected artist receives a one- to two-week residency at the national monument in the month of June.
The artist will create work while immersed in a beautiful environment and share their art with the public. Applications are welcomed from all artists, regardless of style or medium.
Now in its ninth year, the Artist-in-Residence program has allowed numerous artists to transform the monument's natural and cultural resources into visual art, objects and performances.
During their residency, the artist will share their experience and artistic vision in a public presentation. Following the residency, artists are asked to donate an original artwork piece, which they will retain the rights to.
One artist and one alternate will be selected based on the following criteria: entry materials, residency proposal, professionalism and creative vision.
Interested artists can learn more and find an application at the Artist-in-Residence website, which is "bit.ly/CSNMart," by emailing "jduwe@blm.gov" or by calling (541)-618-2320. Applications must be submitted by January 24th.
