Ucross General Residency Program

Ucross provides residencies to approximately 115 individuals each year, ranging from two weeks to six weeks in length. At any one time, up to ten individuals are in residence, typically four writers, four visual artists, and two composers. The program is open to national applicants working in Craft/Traditional Arts, Photography, Drawing, Film/Video/New Media, Mixed-Media/Multi-Discipline, Painting, and Sculpture. Entry fee is $40.

Ucross provides each artist with living accommodations, meals, work space, and uninterrupted time to focus on their creative process. Lunch and dinners are prepared Monday to Friday by a professional chef, with ample provisions available for breakfasts and weekends. Lunches are delivered to individual studios; group dinners take place at 6 p.m. Towels and all linens are provided, as is weekly housekeeping for bedrooms. Cell phone service and wireless internet are available throughout residency facilities. There is no charge for the residency itself. Residents are responsible for providing their own working materials and for their travel to Sheridan, Wyoming.
