Mission

Mission

Enriching our community by building a creative network of practitioners in the arts, through inspiration and place.

Value

– Promote creative expression in The Arts.

– Support and encourage those who seek to conserve, protect, and renew natural ecosystems.

– Provide and protect into perpetuity a place where practitioners can pursue and manifest their vision through exploration, reflection, research and collaboration.

A Willowtail residency exists to invite practitioners, in an array of fields and mediums, a time and space free from their usual obligations and distractions.  Complete immersion into this space allows residents to contemplate and focus on their projects with the preserve’s sights, sounds and smells to inspire them.  Essential to creating deeper works are the unexpected directions of thought and the expansion of nascent ideas into more robust and surprising creations.
