Each year, the Entrada Institute awards $1500 to a writer or artist to support work that encourages dialogue and discovery about the natural treasures and peoples of the Colorado Plateau. Applications for the Entrada Artist-in-Residence stipend are due the fall of each year.

The Artist-in Residence program is intended to support artists, writers, humanities scholars, and earth and social scientists in their development of new works, and to promote understanding and appreciation of the natural, historical, and cultural heritage of the Colorado Plateau.
Entrada has awarded the annual artist-in-residence grant to artists and writers working on a variety of projects for over a decade.
The 2011 stipend went to noted art historian Dr. Will South to write an essay for publication about the life and art of the late artist V. Douglas Snow. In 2010, Ann Torrence used the award to create a photographic essay about volunteerism in Wayne County, Utah.
If you are interested in applying for the Entrada Artist-in-Residence award, please send a non-returnable portfolio of your work and a letter or email that describes your proposed project and demonstrates how it supports Entrada’s mission.
The deadline for this year is October 31, 2011.
Submission information is detailed in a PDF document.
