# 2026 Open Call

**Hosted by:** Loghaven Artist Residency

**Type:** Residency | **Location:** Knoxville, TN, United States | **Deadline:** July 15, 2026

## About This Program

Loghaven is dedicated to supporting artists with all the resources needed to create innovative new work. To us, this means not only providing time and space and an inspiring setting; it means financial support. We believe artists should be compensated for their time and contribution to society. Thus, in addition to underwriting the cost of room and board for the duration of the visit, Loghaven provides a weekly living stipend, travel subsidy, and freight reimbursement for materials shipping.

One of Loghaven's distinguishing features is our desire to cultivate relationships with Fellows that endure beyond their stay. For over eighty years, this cabin community has been home to artists, intellectuals, and entrepreneurs seeking inspiration in beautiful surroundings. It is our heritage. We consider the Fellows to be members of a longstanding community and have put support structures in place to foster their relationship with Loghaven even after they have completed their residency. Alumni/ae are eligible to participate in future residencies, and we engage with them through personal outreach, marketing initiatives, and relationship building to promote their work.

Residency sessions last from two to six weeks and are process-oriented. Loghaven is a retreat-based residency, and artists are not expected to participate in public events unless they choose to do so. If artists are interested in creating public-facing events during their stay, Loghaven is excited to help facilitate them.
