PUBLIC ART AND ECOLOGY RESIDENCY OPPORTUNITY

The Public Art and Ecology Artist-in-Residence is a new partnership between Iowa Lakeside Lab and Imagine Iowa Great Lakes.

Starting in the summer of 2021, one artist will be selected for an extended 8-12 week residency where they will have an immersive experience in the ecology, science and natural history of the Iowa Great Lakes region. As part of the residency, the selected artist will develop and execute a temporary public art project in the community that engages local residents and visitors in the natural systems that make up the Iowa Great Lakes region.

The residency includes lodging and meals a Lakeside Lab on West Okoboji Lake; access to lectures, researchers and field study activities taking place at Lakeside Lab, a $5000 stipend and a $10,000 budget to go towards the execution of the public art project.
