About this Residency

Terradise Nature Center has been excited to expand our arts programming over the past five years by mobilizing our beautiful six-acre nature preserve as location and muse for local art-making. Our Arts at Terradise program suite — of which this residency is a part — includes Terradise’s efforts to preserve and present the photography, filmmaking, and poetry of Terradise founders Trella & Ray Romine, alongside past Ohio Arts Council-funded efforts like our Terradise Ambient: Environmental Soundscapes Along the Olentangy soundscape project (FY2021), & our Caledonia Conservationists: Prairie Environmentalism Along the Whetstone pop-up & digital exhibit/oral history project (FY2023).

Our Terradise Environmental Arts Residency — entering its fourth year in 2025 — was originally made possible through the once-in-a-lifetime support of a Community Projects Grant from the Ohio Arts Council’s Arts Resiliency Initiative: designed to kickstart COVID-19 recovery in Ohio communities through direct funds to artists. Thanks to the support from an Ohio Arts Council ArtsNEXT grant for FY2025, we will be able to bring back the Terradise Environmental Arts Residency for its fourth year running in 2025, to provide month-long paid residencies to nine new artists … from the entire Sandusky Plains Region. You read that right: new this year, artists in Wyandot & Crawford Counties, alongside Marion & Morrow Counties, are eligible to apply!

This year, three artists will be “artists-in-residence” each month across April, May, & June 2024.

We’re seeking artists in all genres — from photography to painting to theatre to music to folk/traditional arts to poetry to foodways to woodcarving to dance to film/video/media arts! Artists from historically-marginalized communities are especially encouraged to apply. Our residencies are “non-residential” (i.e., no housing will be provided); but you will be expected to visit Terradise Nature Center and/or Terradise Nature Preserve (across the river, managed by Marion County Parks District) at least three times during your residency. You will not be expected to collaborate or meet up with the other artist; although you’re welcome to if you’d like.

We interpret asking that applicant artists be living in, working in, or “from” the Sandusky Plains Region of North-Central Ohio (Marion/Morrow/Wyandot/Crawford Counties) loosely – to mean anyone living in, working in, or ancestrally from either county. (See our application for more details.) While our residency is primarily intended for artists already located in North-Central Ohio, if you are an artist with Ohio roots, or an indigenous artist from a tribe with historic connections to North-Central Ohio, please contact us to discuss your local housing needs or possibilities in the event you should be selected.

As a Terradise Environmental Artist-in-Residence, your primary tasks will be to:

• Visit Terradise, & explore & enjoy our property, & this important stretch of the Olentangy (Whetstone) River
• Explore Terradise’s history, mission, & landscape – including the history & legacies of founders Trella & Ray Romine, and/or their poetry, photography, & writings
• Produce original artwork in any genre inspired by the Terradise Nature Center or Terradise Nature Preserve properties, our mission, our history, Trella & Ray Romine’s artwork, lives, or archives, or our stretch of the Olentangy!
• Your work can make direct use of Terradise (photography, incorporating materials, sound/film recording, performance/installation), or can be inspired by this land & our mission!

All resident artists will be asked to conduct a one-hour public program, workshop, or artists’ talk (as a part of a larger, jointly-hosted two-hour public event with your fellow monthly artist) outdoors at Terradise (or remotely on Zoom, if weather or public health conditions dictate) at the conclusion of their residency.

Another change for this year: unsuccessful applicants from our 2022, 2023, and 2024 application cycles will have the option to have a past application flagged for consideration for this year’s residency with no additional application required. Four of the nine available slots will be reserved for artists from past applicant pools who did not get a residency in past years. This changes has been made to honor the hard work & high quality of past applicants in very competitive application cycles.

For TEAR 2024, Terradise Nature Center will be offering stipends of up to $1,000 to support one-month residencies, with up to $100 in materials stipends available on a reimbursement basis for residency-critical artmaking supplies & materials! We reserve the right to adjust stipend amounts & number of artists based on number of applicants.

Note: Due to changes in the cycles & availability of this program’s major supporting grant, we expect the Terradise Environmental Arts Residency will not be offered again in Spring 2026; depending on organizational priorities, it may be brought back on a bi-annual basis, or discontinued indefinitely after this 2025 season. We strongly encourage interested local artists to apply now, while program funds are still available, as future seasons of this special residency are not guaranteed.

Application Help

Thanks to the generous support of the Ohio Arts Council, Terradise Nature Center is proud to offer a robust program of technical assistance to support community artists in applying to our Terradise Environmental Arts Residency for 2025. These efforts are meant to help our residency & its application process be more accessible to local artists — especially those who have never held an artists’ residency before, who may not be sure of the best way to conceive of a project or share past work, or who may be uncomfortable or unfamiliar with technology.

Applications are due by 11:59PM EST (or received by that time, for hard-copy applications by post) on Saturday, March 1st. We encourage all interested applicants to proactively take advantage of our technical assistance offerings & opportunities for application review. Application review & technical assistance will be very limited the week of February 24th; generally, we are most available to give the best help to the artists who contact us early! That said, if you find out about the program close to the deadline, & have a question, there’s no harm in asking to see what we can do.

In January 2025, Terradise Nature Center is proud to offer two live Zoom information sessions with information about our residency & application process, with time for questions & answers. We encourage all artists interested in applying & with internet or mobile phone access unable to attend those sessions to watch the YouTube recordings & download the PDF slide deck — we promise: the time you set aside to review our sessions will result in a stronger application!

• Info Session #1: Tuesday, January 7th from 7-8:30PM
  
• Info Session #2: Sunday, January 19th from 3-4:30PM

• Sunday, February 16th: 12-4PM (Zoom)

ZOOM MEETING ID: 398 406 1515 || PASSWORD: TERRADISE!

Office hours can be used to workshop application narratives, get live help navigating the application, or to discuss your residency project or portfolio. We are also more than happy to help you with selection or preparation of work samples: including exporting to compatible file formats. “In person” office hours can also be made available on-site at the Terradise Nature Center Office upon request: including for artists who need our support photographing & documenting your work.

Limited additional hours of 1:1 technical support to artist-applicants will be available on a first-come first-served basis. Artists needing support or wishing for a draft review are encouraged to contact Terradise Environmental Arts Residency Coordinator Jess Lamar Reece Holler at terradisenaturecenter at gmail dot com with “Terradise Environmental Arts Residency 2025” in the subject line to arrange for a time to talk.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Next

QUESTION: “I don’t currently live or work in the Sandusky Plains Region of North-Central Ohio — Marion, Morrow, Crawford, or Wyandot Counties; but I am from there, or have ancestors who are from there — can I still apply?!”

If you are a North-Central Ohio artist, or an indigenous artist from a tribe or tribes with historic ties to North-Central Ohio … the short answer is: YES! Our application intentionally defines relationship to county broadly; & gives you space to lay out your connection. While we expect all of our artists — to honor the spirit of our program, which supports North-Central Ohio artists or those with ancestral roots here — to either be from (personally or ancestrally), live in, or work in Marion, Morrow, Wyandot, or Crawford County, we are curious to hear you define your own relationship to either or both of the counties we serve.

Please note that — new for 2024! — we have expanded our Terradise Environmental Arts Residency service region to Wyandot & Crawford Counties, in addition to Marion & Morrow Counties! Any artists living in, working in, or ancestrally “from” Marion, Morrow, Wyandot, or Crawford Counties in Ohio — or the unceded indigenous constellations overlaying, preceding, & enduring beyond our colonial landscape — are welcome to apply!

Update for TEAR 2024: For 2024, we have even more flexibility to open our applications to artists residing in states other than Ohio with historic or ancestral ties to the Sandusky Plains Region (Marion, Wyandot, Crawford, and/or Morrow Counties) in North-Central Ohio. We are especially interested in seeing applicants from indigenous artists with historic ties to North-Central Ohio — such as members of the Wyandotte tribes of Oklahoma & Kansas — who hold deep & ongoing relationships with settler-stolen land along the Whetstone // Olentangy River, & the ancient, tended Sandusky Plains prairie formation that sustained our local ecology for centuries. However, in most situations, we are not set up to provide housing for artists; as such, our priority will still be supporting North-Central Ohio artists local to the region who can travel to Terradise; but we encourage all interested artists who are from, living, or working in our four-county service area to apply. Make a case for yourself, & we’ll be happy to hear it!

Our application question on “County” reads:

Note: You must be a resident of, work in, or be “from” the historic Sandusky Plains prairie region of North-Central Ohio (Marion, Morrow, Crawford, & Wyandot Counties) to qualify for this residency. We are purposely leaving “from” undefined, given the complex relations many Americans have to place, given realities of settler-colonialism & dispossession. If you feel ancestrally from or connected to Crawford, Wyandot, Marion or Morrow Counties, even if you grew up elsewhere, we will encourage you to apply. You’ll have a chance to share more about your connection, below! Please select all that apply!

QUESTION: “I’ve applied in the past, but haven’t been successful. It’s alot of work & pretty disheartening to have to prepare an entirely new application each year. Is there anything you can do to consider my past work, to spare me the trouble of applying again this year?”

YES. We hear you. In 2025 — given uncertainties about the future of our residency program due to recent changes in our grant support, and out of our commitment to making our residency application process easy and accessible to local artists — we are happy to consider the applications of applicants in past cycles for this year!

You don’t even need to do anything. We’ll reach out, in early January 2025 when applications open, to ask if you’d like your past application & project to be considered. If anything has changed, we’ll send you a copy of your past application & you’ll have the chance to enter. All past applicants who opt-in // reply “yes” that they want to be considered will have their applications considered for our 2025 cycle! And not only that: we are earmarking four slots of our nine available 2025 residencies for past applicants who just missed the cutoff, & did not receive residencies. If you are a past-season applicant who was disappointed not to be a part of our program, we hope 2025 will be your year!

We honor the work our applicants have put in, and that our process is unfortunately very competitive due to demand — we’re the only paid artists’ residency in the North-Central Ohio region. There are simply far more fantastic artists working in our community than we can fund. We are thrilled by so many of our past applicants, & hope to welcome you at long-last as a Terradise Environmental Artist-in-Residence in 2025! Stay tuned for a note from us; or feel free to reach out proactively if you’re a past applicant who wants your old application to be considered! Note: Successful past applicants — i.e. Terradise Environmental Arts Residency alumni — will be asked to complete a new application // project for consideration; but we can provide you with a GoogleDocs version of your past application to edit. Thank you!

QUESTION: Is there an age limit for the residency? Can young people or artists under 18 apply?

The short answer — here at Terradise, we take inclusivity seriously: & that means inclusivity to the incredible artists across different age groups that make up our county! We really want to encourage both elders & young people to apply.

Any artist of any age is encouraged to apply, as long as they can commit to the month-long residency, conceive of a mission & purpose for their residency, manage to get themselves to Terradise 3x during the residency, & develop & execute a one-hour public program or event.

We have traditionally conducted outreach for this residency to art, music, & English teachers across our service region, & want to especially encourage high-schoolers to apply; but we would also happily consider applications from middle-school & even possibly elementary-school applicants if they can commit to the terms of the residency & propose a feasible project. We honor the work & vision of young artists, & recognize the dearth of meaningful paid opportunities for young people to be held in practicing & developing their craft. We’re proud to be not only the only artist residency in the region, but a deliberately inclusive residency seeking to provide structured support for new work creation for all people.

We are excited that young people in our North-Central Ohio // Sandusky Plains communities  are already working as & thinking of themselves as artists! That said: for artists under 18, legal guardians will have to consent to the residency & allowing us to provide newsletter & social media coverage of your young person’s residency. If this is an issue or concern for an artist who is not living with their family of origin, please reach out so we can learn more.

We’re happy to talk by email to discuss specific cases! You can contact us at terradisenaturecenter@gmail.com!

QUESTION: I have a disability & Terradise Nature Center grounds are not fully accessible to me, and/or I am dealing with COVID-19 or other long-term chronic illnesses & don’t know exactly when or if I will be up for the site visits. Can I still apply?

QUESTION: We are an artist collective, band, or duo. Are multiple people able to apply as a single entity for one of the two slots available each month?

QUESTION: I’m not great at or comfortable with writing; or I’m most comfortable in another medium — like audio, or video. Are there alternatives to the “essay” questions?

QUESTION: I do not speak English, or English is not my first language. How can I learn more about the residency or access the application?

We understand that Marion, Morrow, Wyandot, & Crawford Counties are made up of many different linguistic communities … & that is a part of the beauty of our region! We highly encourage those who speak language besides English as a first or primary language to apply. Although our staff is not fluent in languages other than English, we will employ translation tool to try to communicate with you in your preferred language.

Our application is available, via a GoogleTranslate widget located on the page (location depends on your browser), in most major world languages. If you click to translate the application into another language, all the text will switch to that language.

We also have promotional flyers for the residency with core information available in Spanish, which will be made available at locations around Marion County, & can be delivered digitally by request! Email us at terradisenaturecenter@gmail.com with any language justice/access needs.

PREGUNTA: No hablo inglés o el inglés no es mi primer idioma. ¿Cómo puedo obtener más información sobre la residencia o acceder a la solicitud?

Entendemos que los condados de Marion, Wyandot, Crawford, y Morrow están formados por muchas comunidades lingüísticas diferentes… ¡y eso es parte de la belleza de nuestra región! Recomendamos encarecidamente a aquellos que hablan un idioma además del inglés como idioma principal o principal que presenten su solicitud. Aunque nuestro personal no domina otros idiomas además del inglés, emplearemos una herramienta de traducción para tratar de comunicarnos con usted en su idioma preferido.

Nuestra aplicación está disponible, a través de un widget de GoogleTranslate ubicado en la página (la ubicación depende de su navegador), en la mayoría de los principales idiomas del mundo. Si hace clic para traducir la aplicación a otro idioma, todo el texto cambiará a ese idioma.

¡También tenemos folletos promocionales para la residencia con información básica disponible en español, que estarán disponibles en ubicaciones alrededor del condado de Marion y se pueden entregar digitalmente a pedido! Envíenos un correo electrónico a [email protected] con cualquier necesidad de acceso/justicia lingüística.

QUESTION: There’s alot to process in the application, & I want to take my time & get ready. Is there a way I can preview the questions ahead of time?

Absolutely. This was our #1 request from the TEAR Residency application process in 2022; & we responded to that call by making the full PDF of the application questions available online & for download during the application period, to help you prepare your questions in advance.

Please note that our online application form won’t let you skip past required questions to preview the next sections, we’re making available a PDF copy of the application that includes all application fields & questions; you can use this to preview the application, & to prepare your responses.

You can save your application, & return to it at a later date. However, to prevent lost work, we recommend that you prepare your application responses (at least the longer narrative responses) in a separate word processor, GoogleDoc, or word processing tool of your choice, & then input them into the application once you are done & ready to apply.

QUESTION: Can I save my application & come back?

Yup. Our form has been redesigned this year to allow you to save your application & come back. We always recommend that applicants prepare their responses outside of the application form — in a Word processor or in GoogleDocs, etc. — & then paste your responses in, to avoid any possibility of losing work.

QUESTION: I (or someone I know) am not super comfortable with computers, or don’t have internet access. Is it possible to apply for the Terradise Environmental Arts Residency via a paper application?

Absolutely. We understand that online-only applications can present accessibility barriers to some community members. This year, we have an equivalent paper application available; we’ll distribute this at post offices across Marion & Morrow County. Additional copies can be mailed to you upon request.

The paper application, likewise, will require work samples. We encourage paper applicants to contact us to discuss options. You could mail us, for example, a CD or a flash drive of materials, if you have computer access, & have an audio or multi-media practice. You can also include printed images of your work on any paper; or, for writers, copies of your work. We may have limited ability to preview and upload material from some physical file types (floppy disk, etc.), so we recommend applicants check with us before mailing in a paper application.

New for 2024!: All printed applications must be postmarked so that they arrive by the application deadline of February 1st, 2024. Applications postmarked on February 1st, but which arrive later, may not be able to be considered, given the tight turnaround to get our applications logged, processed, & passed out to our Community Selection Committee.

Applications can be mailed to:

Terradise Nature Center
Attention: Terradise Environmental Arts Residency (TEAR)
1536 Whetstone River Road North
Caledonia, Ohio 43314

QUESTION: What makes a good work sample?

There’s no one right answer here — part of what we want to see from applicants is the way that you curate & select samples that show off your unique arts practice!

That said, we recognize that different applicants may have had more or less familiarity with preparing work samples, depending on your level of access to arts spaces & training.

Generally, work samples should be high-quality examples of your best work in a genre or genres related to your proposed residency. The file type & what you submit will depend on your practice. If you’re a woodworker, you might upload four videos of finished furniture, as well as a video showing your process; or three photos or work, two designs, & a video of your work foraging for wood in your family’s forest. If you’re a musician, you might send five links to YouTube videos of your work; or upload five files of your music. If you’re a foodways artist, you might include five photos of dishes you commonly make in your family, or a flyer with the menu for your catering practice, or a handwritten recipe. The Terradise Environmental Arts Residency is very deliberately open to a wide range of arts genres & creative practices, so we are prepared to see a wide range of work samples.

If you are a multi-disciplinary artist (practicing multiple arts traditions or genres), depending on how you’d like to present your work & the focus of your residency, you might choose different kinds of samples. For example: if you’re an outdoorsman who carves knives from native hardwood, but you also play in a bluegrass band, and tan leather & do blacksmithing, you may want to showcase a wide range of work samples showcasing all of those practices, if you are proposing a residency where you develop a range of pieces across your skill set. On the other hand, if you are a ceramicist and a hip-hop dancer, but you’re proposing a residency where you choreograph a new dance number to be staged & set at Terradise Nature Center, then you may or may not want to include images of the mugs & bowls you make. It’s all up to you!

We recognize that curating & selecting work samples — as well as having access to professional recording or photography of your work — is a privilege not everyone has. Because of this, just like in 2023, we are excited to be dedicating a portion of our Ohio Arts Council TEAR 2024 support funds to providing direct technical assistance to help artist-applicants strengthen their applications.

We will have several hours of 1:1 technical assistance available on a first-come-first serve basis — this time can be used for brainstorming ideas, solidifying your portfolio or work samples, or reviewing draft application. We also have some scheduled drop-in “office hour” Zoom calls set up for January, & we can help you choose work to best represent your practice; & we’re even willing to meet with you on-site at Terradise, upon request, to photograph or help you record your work. Because these technical support hours are limited, they will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis; once hours are expended, & the closer we get to the residency application due date of February 1st, 2024, the more limited we will be in our ability to provide extensive technical support or advising.

Please contact Terradise Environmental Arts Residency Coordinator Jess Lamar Reece Holler at [email protected] with the subject heading TEAR 2024: Technical Assistance to request technical assistance.

QUESTION: I’m a Terradise Environmental Arts Residency alum from 2022, 2023, or 2024. I loved the program! It kept me creative! I have a new idea // different genre I work in, & I’d really love to return to be a resident again! Can I re-apply? Are there other opportunities for Terradise Environmental Arts Residency alumni?!

We love our alumni! If it has been at least one year since your residency with us, then yes — you are eligible to apply again! While generally — given the highly-competitive nature of our residency, & its status as the only paid artists’ residency experience in & for artists from North-Central Ohio — we like to reserve our program slots for new-to-us artists to share the love, we’d be happy to consider your application, with the caveat that scoring may be weighted to give more priority to new artists. If you’re an alumni applicant who wants access to your past application to edit, please contact us, & we can share the file. We do ask that all returning applicants propose new projects.

We’re also thrilled to bring back our Terradise Environmental Arts Residency Alumni Workshop program — with some new tweaks! — for 2025! We’ll have three slots for returning artists-in-residence from the immediate past year (2024) to pitch a paid public workshop or performance with us for Spring 2025! We’ll contact 2024 alumni directly about the opportunity … stay tuned, if you haven’t heard from us already!

Application PDFs: Digital Application

By popular request, we are making available — returning again for 2024 — downloadable PDF versions of our Terradise Environmental Arts Residency application information packet & application questions. You can download these to preview our application questions, or to prepare responses in a word processing and/or audio-visual platform of your choosing. These packets are not the official application for those applying online (which is our request if you have computer & internet access & know-how.)

Clarification & Disclaimer: We are providing these PDFs for reference only, so that applicants can preview the questions, know what to expect, & prepare responses in advance of filling out the online application form. Applicants will still need to click on the “Application” tab & fill out & submit their application form digitally to apply for the residency.

Downloadable Print/Mail-In Application PDF

For applicants without computer or internet access or training, or otherwise uncomfortable with the digital application, you may mail in the PDF packet (or a printed copy found at your local post office.) Please note that some aspects of submission, like including work samples, may be more cumbersome in a physical mail-in application. It’s advisable, if you plan to apply by mail, to contact us ahead of the deadline to discuss & arrange.

Because mail-in applications present several possible challenges in terms of work sample submission format, & increase labor for our community selection committee — including scanning & upload of submitted work samples & transcription of handwriting — we prefer that, whenever possible, applicants with adequate access to computers & internet use our digital application form. The PDF of the print application is being provided here as a courtesy for those without easy online access; feel free to print & provide to any artists you know without computer access.

Again: our strong recommendation is that all artists who are able to please apply online; the digital application provides a much more streamlined experience. However, we acknowledge that technology access & skills present a barrier for many otherwise highly qualified artists, & we are happy to work with you to make the application process accessible.
