About the Uncommon Art Residency
The Uncommon Art Residency began when the doors first opened in 2017 at Sound View Greenport, New York and has expanded to The Anvil Hotel in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Created by hotel owner, Erik Warner, these residencies have worked to be havens for creatives from all over the country. Community, collaboration and connection are at its core. For the last seven years contemporary artists, composers, musicians, playwrights, and craftsmen have explored their unique medium and connected with the local community. The influence of location and community have sprouted new ideas and work for all of our residents.
In Jackson Hole, the Uncommon Artist Residency Director, Travis Walker works with local partners to host the program including the Art Association of Jackson Hole. Walker is a full time artist and the founding director of the Teton ArtLab. Participating artists are able to work in the studio spaces at the Art Association in Center for the Arts during their Jackson residency. Kara Hoblin is the New York Residency Director and will be leading the curatorial direction for the group exhibit at The Center.
The residency program allows artists to create whatever they wish and only ask in return that the artist hosts a community initiative. As part of the residency, each artist is invited to share something with the community whether it be a performance, an open working session, or even a display of their work. In many cases this can be a talk or lecture but artists have hosted classes, had performances, & have explored unique ways to connect with the community.
