Artist in the Lookout Residency Application Period Open

2024 ARTIST IN RESIDENCE, BLACK MOUNTAIN LOOKOUT
 
Plumas Arts is working with the Plumas National Forest on our 8th Annual collaboration to select and showcase artists for the 2024 Artist in Residence at the Black Mountain Lookout on the Plumas National Forest.
 
The Artist in Residence program provides a unique opportunity for one artist to spend three nights at the Black Mountain Lookout to draw upon the breathtaking landscapes of the Plumas National Forest for inspiration. In return, the program asks that the artist donate an original piece of framed artwork and/or body of work from this experience and work with Plumas Arts to make a public presentation of the work in November 2024.

That was a follow-up to last weekend’s program, which included a hike to learn about trail dynamics and a trail maintenance day on Mount Hough.

 

Thank you again to Cleary for supporting this year’s program—be sure to check ‘em out over at clearybikes.com for bikes for all ages of kiddos, 2 to teenager!
