| Espy Foundation | Updated October 22nd, 2008 |
|
The residency program is the very heart of the Espy Foundation's mission. The Foundation's goal is to provide writers and artists of all genres from all over the world with an environment in which they can pursue their work without interruption. Residents share accommodations in bay view cottages in the serenely beautiful village of Oysterville, a National Historic District, located near the northern tip of the Long Beach Peninsula on the southwest coast of Washington State. Residents also receive a stipend for food. Oysterville has proven to be an ideal environment for writers and artists, including Gregory Grenon (March, 2006) and Peter Donahue (June, 2006). Its tranquility, solitude, and natural beauty never fail to inspire creativity as well as a high level of productivity. An Espy Foundation residency allows for concentrated periods of production and also provides enough time and space that writers and artists find themselves free to step back from their work, re-evaluate and re-structure projects, experiment, take risks, and develop new ideas. The month-long residencies are offered in March, June and October. Both emerging and established fiction writers, creative non-fiction writers, poets, playwrights, screenwriters, painters, sculptors, photographers, musicians, and composers are eligible for the residencies. Send the completed application form, project description, work samples (writers), images (artists), and application fee to The Espy Foundation. The two sponsors’ letters should be sent directly to the Foundation by the sponsor writing the letter. Deadline for Application: November 1 for the Spring Residency (March) February 1 for the Summer Residency (June) June 1 for the Fall Residency (October) You will be notified by mail of the panel’s decision approximately six weeks after the deadline. Send 3 COPIES of 10 pages of an article, essay, memoir, book excerpts or other non-fiction as work samples. send: Query and Partial MS looking for: Article |
