Residency Programs
Our Approach
A Multidisciplinary Home for Creative Practice
Marble House Project offers five distinct residency programs — each rooted in the belief that transformative work happens when artists, thinkers, and makers share space, meals, and ideas. Whether you are a painter seeking solitude, a chef exploring farm-to-table practice, or a collective investigating ecology, there is a program shaped for your practice.
Programs
Artist Residency
Our flagship program welcomes 8 multidisciplinary artists per three-week session in the Green Mountains.
Mid-April – Late October
Culinary Residency
A professional kitchen and our organic farm become your laboratory for exploring the intersection of food and art.
Concurrent with Artist Residency
Family-Friendly Residency
One session each season is designed for artists who want to bring their spouse and children ages 4–14.
One session per season
Ecology / Making Kin
A themed residency for artists, scientists, journalists, and activists.
One session per season
Collaborative Residencies
Groups of up to 8 apply together for an intensive 3- to 10-day winter retreat.
November – MarchWhat We Provide
Everything You Need to Focus on Your Work
Housing
Residents live together in the historic, eight-bedroom Manley-Lefevre house, organized around a responsibilities-sharing system, highlighting sustainability and fostering community.
Meals
We provide fresh ingredients and all residents will be asked to cook dinner (in a pair) three to four times over the course of their residency. Group dinners take place each night Monday–Friday and feature food from our organic garden.
Studio Space
Dedicated studio space assigned to you based on your needs.
Community
Artists are asked to present their work at ART SEED. This takes the form of talks, performances, and open studios connecting you with peers and the public.
Organic Farm
Residents are invited to help with planting, harvesting, and maintenance. Although not required, our hope is that you will spend some time in the garden alongside your studio practice for inspiration.
