APP LINK -- https://artist.callforentry.org/festivals_unique_info.php?ID=14808 -- The Wrangell Mountains Center (WMC) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is connecting people with wildlands through art, science, and education in Alaska. The Wrangell Mountains Residency Program aims to support visual artists of all genres, performers, and writers. The residency will provide unrestricted work time and space to focused individuals. We invite applicants from a diversity of backgrounds with creative and inquisitive minds who will both add to and benefit from the interdisciplinary efforts at our campus in McCarthy, Alaska and the surrounding Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve. Please consider how you might engage with the local ecology, community, or history before applying. This experience uniquely combines rugged Alaskan small town life, off-the-grid experiences, and access to one of the most dynamic natural landscapes in North America. Positioned near ice-capped mountains, the roaring Kennicott River and McCarthy Creek, and the raw terminus of the Kennicott adn Root Glaciers, the local landscape is an outdoor laboratory for study in ecology, glaciology, and geology. Located in downtown McCarthy, residents can have the opportunity to experience solitude and quiet and/or to be a part of the vibrant social scene. The town of McCarthy was established during the copper mining period in the early 20th century. Many historic sites and buildings in McCarthy and Kennecott combine to make the area a rich cultural environment, hosting vibrant communities full of character and dynamic narratives. It is a great place for contemplation, creative endeavor, and community engagement. Currently on the National Register of Historic Places, the WMC campus includes the Old Hardware Store that was built in 1911 as a town general mercantile, and abandoned in 1938 with closure of the copper mine. In the 1980s, the historic space was converted into an active educational center for place-based learning. The campus also includes an adjacent homestead property, Porphyry Place, which houses programming and models off-the-grid technologies and practices. All facilities at the WMC campus are designed to effectively support a learning community. Residency participants will have the opportunity to experience and to contribute to this sustainable living system. The WMC will provide room and board as well as a simple workspace for the resident, and can help to coordinate transportation between McCarthy and Anchorage (often via carpooling). The resident is responsible for travel to and from Alaska (if out of state). There is no stipend available at this time. During the two-week time period at the WMC, the artist will be asked to share their experience with the public by demonstration, talk, reading, performance, workshop, or other means. The presentation will depend on the resident’s interests, medium, and experience in collaboration with WMC staff. Program Goals: To provide opportunity to grow creative practice through unique natural and scientific inspiration Facilitate a personal experience with the dramatic landscape and sense of place Foster meaningful connections and educational opportunities with the WMC Create opportunities for collaboration between Residents and the local community Promote professional and personal relationships between Residents Program Dates: We plan to host two artists during the following dates in 2025 over a single cohort. June 12-26 Facilities: Each resident will be provided with a furnished live/work space. These spaces are rustic but sufficiently equipped to provide basic comforts, a productive space, and privacy as well as the opportunity for immersion in the natural world and the human community. Residents will have access to common areas on campus and a fully stocked kitchen supplemented by several staff-prepared simple, healthy, vegetarian meals inspired by our garden and shared communally with WMC staff, students, and visitors. Our remote location limits the ability of visitors to obtain many goods and services in the area. There is a small community market with a limited selection of fresh food, dry goods, and camping gear can be purchased. Participants should come prepared with all the necessary research materials and art supplies since they are not available for purchase locally. Please communicate specific needs for the residency period to ensure enjoyment and productivity. Limited wi-fi internet is available (but not reliable!) and the ability to charge electronic devices is dictated by solar power availability. McCarthy is a welcoming, beautiful place without urban amenities. The Wrangell Mountains Center provides as much comfort as possible. Access to basic showers, drinking water, firewood, outhouses (no flush toilets), and solar energy will be covered through a campus orientation provided by staff. Please contact us in advance if you have questions.
