In Cahoots Residency
Sonoma County, California, United States
In Cahoots Residency, located in pastoral Sonoma County, California, offers a unique collaborative environment for artists. It provides housing and studio space for emerging and professional artists, focusing on artists' books, letterpress, printmaking, writing, and collaboration. The residency accommodates three to five artists at a time for sessions ranging from 6 days to 3 weeks. Artists are housed in private guest houses with kitchens and full bathrooms and have 24-hour access to shared studios or an individual writing studio. The residency encourages artists to pursue creative projects or research, with options for technical instruction or creative mentorship for an additional fee. A work-share session concludes each residency, where artists share their progress and are required to donate a piece of artwork to the In Cahoots Residency Archive. The facility includes a renovated barn for printmaking and book arts, a letterpress studio, and a separate book bindery, equipped with various presses and tools. Artists are responsible for their own cooking, with weekly rides to the grocery store provided for those without a car.
