THE SNOW SURVEY CABIN RESIDENCY
A unique artist residency program at the Snow Survey Cabin, situated along the Snowy Range Scenic Byway in the Brush Creek-Hayden Ranger District of the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest. Each year, Alces invites three science communicators to participate in this mini-residency, providing creative support, a $150 stipend and up to four nights of accommodation in the Forest Service Snow Survey Cabin. The residency offers artists the opportunity to immerse themselves in the wild while developing work that visually tells the stories of local ecologies and ecosystems. By supporting both artistic practice and environmental storytelling, this residency fosters deep engagement with place while creating meaningful connections between artists, the public, and the natural world. Each participating resident will have the opportunity to exhibit work at the Berry Biodiversity gallery.
