Application notesLocation is remote wilderness in Alaska, 180 miles from nearest road, accessible only by fly-in (small bush plane landing on dirt runway, often bumpy boat ride required). Pathways are gravel or dirt trails. Cabins and yurts have stairs at doorways; some facilities located uphill. Artists with limited mobility will have difficulty navigating the property. Accessibility contact: Mara Bartlett Asenjo (mara@chulitnalodge.com). Fellows may bring partner, family member, or assistant to aid during residency. Pre-orientation materials and communication before arrival to discuss accommodations and health needs. Orientation upon arrival. Pets (non-service animals) allowed. Collaborative applications accepted (teams may apply together). Additional expectations: donate a work of art, participate in open studio with fellow residents, give artist talk or presentation.
