Supporting the Visual & Literary Artists of New York State

The Saltonstall Foundation for the Arts supports New York State artists and writers through two key programs held at our property in Ithaca, New York: our juried residency program and our self-directed, do-it-yourself retreats.

Our juried residencies generally run from late-May through the end of October. Our residencies, or Fellowships, are competitive, free to attend, stipend-supported, and inclusive.

Between mid-November and late-April, we offer our six private apartments and studios on a first-come, first-served basis to residency alumni, our local arts community, and any dedicated writer or artist from around the state. This program is not juried but does require a statement of purpose.
