AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

The Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild offers month long Artist in Residence (AIR) opportunities for visual artists, composers, playwrights/screenwriters, and writers of fiction, nonfiction and poetry. Longer residencies are available for ceramic artists. The AIR sessions generally occur during the months of June, July, August, and September. Our goal is to provide solitude in a community and uninterrupted time in which to concentrate on creative work alongside fellow artists.

Opened in 1903, the Byrdcliffe Art Colony was placed on the National Register of Historic Sites in 1979 for its architectural and historical significance. It is located in the Catskill Mountains, 1.5 miles from the center of Woodstock, New York.

Opening reception November 27th, 7-10pm

This collective brings together a multitude of imaginary landscapes with haunted scenes, massive architectural structures invaded by wicked nature, visions of overcrowded or devastated cities, brick walls in desolated areas, and artificially created parks and communities. Combined they depict personal interpretations of a sprawling world and
evidence of the need for a space for reflection amidst the bewilderment generated by our surroundings.

From October 2010 through January 2011, the Network of Ensemble Theaters

theatermaking. Presented in partnership with the Literary Managers and
Dramaturgs of the Americas (LMDA), these 2 and half-day "Micro-Fests"
highlight ensemble performances and practices, each centering on a
specific theme.

Micro-Fest:LA will investigate how ensembles are creating new work.
Activities will be centered at the Atwater Village Theater in Los
Angeles, December 3-5, 2010.
