As it happens, they also offer creative residency programmes for which you will have to fill out an online form. This could be anywhere between a month to a year in length. During this, the combination is given at the cosy farmhouse lodge, and you get access to the growing community of local artisans and craftspeople.

With favourable conditions for working with the local resources, they also offer mentorship through the residency. However, you will have to submit a written proposal for the project that you wish to develop during the residency duration, participate in open studio day, events, tangible result upon the completion of residency, and participate in resident group exhibitions, to name a few of them. The application form is available on the website and is perfect for someone who shares the desire to create something.

So, if all of these details are perfect for you and you know the people with whom you would like to share this experience, then let them know! We are sure they will also want to check it out.
