    Jan 15, 2004 VISUAL ARTIST RESIDENCY Evergreen House in Baltimore
    offers a two-month summer residency for visual artists living
    outside of Maryland. The program provides housing, individual studio
    and a stipend, allowing an artist the time and space to produce new
    work. The art produced during the residency will form the basis of a
    solo exhibition scheduled at Evergreen House for the following year.
    While in residence, the artist will have access to the extraordinary
    and diverse collections of the historic house and to the 25 acres of
    gardens and meadows of the estate. Evergreen's unique setting may
    inspire the artist to respond by producing work that may not have
    been made otherwise. One residency is offered per year. To apply,
    send a letter of interest, 20 slides of recent work, slide script,
    resume, and an artist's statement. Also include reviews,
    announcements, and catalogs. Please enclose a self-addressed stamped
    envelope for the return of slides and catalogs to: Jackie O'Regan,
    Evergreen House, 4545 North Charles St, Baltimore MD 21210 OR
