Eight artists selected for residency at Acadia National Park

PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • January 25, 2022

Artists and performers from eight states will visit Acadia National Park in 2022 as part of the park’s artists-in-residence program. Participants were selected from 137 applicants across three categories: visual art, writing and at-large. For the first time, Acadia will welcome a jazz composer, a standup comic, a food writer and an art therapist. Each person selected will stay in park-provided housing for 14 days – either all at once or spread out over multiple weeks. They also will participate in one public outreach activit.
