In an inspirational setting removed from the distractions of daily life, CIAR’s Fall Residency Program offers visual artists focused time and a uniquely supportive environment to develop their work. On a small island off the coast of Massachusetts, CIAR hosts a group of twelve artists, who are invited to use the island itself as their studio. Living together in the historic Avalon Inn, the residents have uninterrupted time to become immersed in their creative process. Many use the time to reflect, learn from one another, and find inspiration from their costal surroundings. Residents build insight and camaraderie as they sit down to meals together, cooked by CIAR's wonderful chef.
In 2024, Duke Riley will deliver the Visiting Artist talk and Dr. Katie Castagno will join as our first Visiting Scientist, to create interdisciplinary dialogue and to explore Cuttyhunk through an ecological and climate-based lens.
Participants can select two options for their time on Cuttyhunk, with cost based on room choice:
Shared room for $1,950
Single room for $2,400 - $2,600
CIAR program costs include:
accommodation at the Avalon Inn (including all linens and towel). Read more here.
three daily meals prepared by our chef

Participants are responsible for their own travel to and from the residency, including their ferry tickets and luggage from New Bedford, MA. Participants may need to spend the night in New Bedford to catch the morning ferry. Please take these costs into account when budgeting for the experience.
