| We are pleased to share the full Artist In Residence list for the Spring, Summer, and Fall 2026 cohorts. Artists from Poland to Botswana to Texas will join us on our campus, developing new work in our studios and in dialogue with one another and the extraordinary landscape that surrounds us. Artists in Residence receive financial support and gather for chef-prepared meals in our Mess Hall four days per week—an essential part of the exchange that shapes the Headlands residency experience. We hope you’ll come and visit us at an Open House or for one of our monthly suppers and get to know this amazing new 2026 cohort! |
