The Woodshed isn’t any place in particular and it’s the exact place you need to be! It’s both a creative space and a state of mind — where artists come together to work alongside one another, enjoying the comfort and creative exchange that is a welcome break from winter studio solitude.
Some may remember the pre-pandemic Woodshed of ‘yor — helmed by North Adams’ own Danny O — where camaraderie sparked joyful making — under one roof, a hive of many minds and hands . . . we the busy artist bees!
And so, Eclipse Mill offers to host a new edition of the Woodshed January 24-26, 2025 and invites Berkshire Artists and neighbours to apply to participate in this unique co-working environment.
We can accommodate up to 12 artists. If more than that apply, then we will engage in a lottery, with preference given to full-time Berkshire residents. Artists will receive a modest workspace in the Eclipse Mill gallery with a table and/or wall space, along with a stipend of $75 for supplies. Artists and writers of all disciplines are invited to apply. Musicians and songwriters welcome – please bring equipment that can be used with headphones.
The Woodshed will conclude with a public open studio where artists may share their work and progress on the Sunday afternoon.
The Eclipse Mill is a wheel chair accessible building.
This program is funded in part by a grant from the Cultural Council of Northern Berkshire, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
Additional support provided by New England Puppet Arts and the Eclipse Mill.
