Peter Bullough Foundation Fall 2022 Artist Residency

The Peter Bullough Foundation in downtown historic Winchester, Virginia provides residencies to emerging artists and scholars, including those elevating voices and topics relevant to the LGBTQIA2S+ community. Applications are being accepted for fall 2022 residencies to work in private studios and enjoy the garden and former homes of Dr. Peter Bullough. The ideal applicant will be self-directed and able to work independently. Each awarded residency period is roughly four weeks and is shared with one to two other artists in residence. Artistic collaborators in groups of two to three may apply in one application. Hosting a community workshop virtually or in-person during the residency is encouraged, but not required.

Disciplines accepted include architecture, literature, film/video arts, interdisciplinary arts, music, music composition, playwriting, screenwriting, poetry, scholars, theatre, and the visual arts. Fall 2022 residency dates are: August 18 - September 13, September 15 - October 11, October 13 - November 8, and November 10 - December 6. Applicants must be able to attend one of these four time periods.

The Peter Bullough Foundation offers free accommodations for two to three artists at a time in Dr. Bullough's former home, a renovated 1840's house with private bedrooms and bathrooms and shared common spaces. Private studios and workspaces are located in an adjacent building that also houses the majority of the late Dr. Bullough's book and art collections. Private gardens connect the properties and are available as open-air workspaces. A $550 stipend is provided to aid in covering supplies, necessities, and food for the month. Selection is a multi-step process involving PBF staff, residency committee, residency alumni, and board members. Selections will be announced 30-45 days after the application deadline. The PBF is not ADA accessible at this time.
