The Eureka Springs School of the Arts is looking for practicing woodworkers and craftspeople seeking focused time to refine their abilities, create new work, and expand their knowledge in a Mentored Residency under Master Woodcrafter, Doug Stowe. This will be a participant driven mentorship where you can ask for guidance on woodworking topics of your choice and gain the skills to forge your own individual path as a craftsperson.

The ESSA Residency Program covers the majority of costs of the residency. Selected residents are responsible for the residency fee and their own transportation and food costs. A limited number of full or partial scholarships will be offered. Applicants should indicate their desire to be considered for scholarship opportunities on the application form.
