Ox-Bow School of Art & Artists\u2019 Residency<\/a> is now accepting scholarship applications and registrations for Longform 2026. This intensive, three-week studio residency serves artists from all generations and career stages who are seeking deep creative development and meaningful connection. Occurring August 9\u201329, 2026 on Ox-Bow\u2019s historic campus in Saugatuck, Michigan, the residency brings together one facilitator, visiting artists, and a small cohort of residents for an immersive and collaborative experience. Longform is especially well-suited for painters, printmakers, fiber artists, and writers seeking a focused, discussion-driven environment that supports independent practice and thoughtful feedback.<\/p>\n

Residents receive private accommodations, a dedicated studio space, and three chef-prepared meals per day. This structure allows participants to focus fully on their practice while benefiting from Ox-Bow\u2019s supportive and communal environment.<\/p>\n

Inspired by alternative learning models and low-residency academic programs, Longform cultivates a rhythm of rigorous engagement and open exploration. Participants take part in group discussions based on readings and topics selected by the facilitator, weekly studio visits with visiting artists, and hands-on workshops that expand familiarity with Ox-Bow\u2019s facilities\u2014including printmaking and papermaking. In the evenings, residents share their work through informal presentations that celebrate dialogue, curiosity, and exchange.<\/p>\n

Application, tuition, and scholarships
The cost of Longform is 5,750 USD and requires a portfolio application. Applicants may indicate interest in need-based funding and include a brief statement of need within the application.<\/p>\n

This year, Longform will be facilitated by kg Gnatowski<\/a>, who will guide the cohort through a series of conversations, readings, and shared inquiry across the three-week residency. The program will also feature a dynamic group of visiting artists who contribute through workshops, studio visits, and dialogue. Adelheid Mers<\/a>, Matt Morris<\/a>, and Hope Wang<\/a> will join as Guest Artists, each leading a three-hour workshop open to residents and offering individual studio visits. In addition, Dianna Frid<\/a> will participate as a Visiting Artist, presenting an artist talk and conducting studio visits with all residents. Together, these engagements create multiple points of exchange, feedback, and connection throughout the residency.<\/p>\n
