The Alumni Association of the New York Academy of Art is is pleased to offer a RESIDENCY at Fieldstones to one Academy alum artist.
The AANYAA Fieldstones RESIDENCY is a summer escape in the northern Hudson Valley exclusively for one graduate of the New York Academy of Art. Spend two weeks focusing on your artwork in the peace of a 100-acre rustic, rural property complete with mountain views, and a creek with a swimming hole. Bring hiking boots, marshmallows for the fire, and art supplies as you expand your studio practice in a pastoral environment. The Residency will partially overlap the AANYAA Retreat.
The JUROR for 2026's Residency is JASON PATRICK VOEGELE.

RESIDENCY lodging will be in the "Chicory Barn." The interiors are very rustic: there is a solar shower and an outside privy near the barn privately nestled in a patch of tall bamboo... it's much like camping but with a few more comfortable amenities like a bed with sheets, a mini-fridge, fan, and heater, a camp cooking stove, dishes, a firepit and wood. The alumni-artist-in-residence will receive a $200 stipend to offset travel and food expenses.
The selected alum will have access to Fieldstones’ artist studios in a large barn onsite. Please bear in mind that, despite Fieldstones’ many amenities (which include WIFI and hot water bathroom access), the location and lodgings are rustic. Upon acceptance, the selected alum will receive more information regarding what to pack for Fieldstones, as well as travel directions and info on local grocery stores.
