Sou’wester Arts Week 2023

During our 4th Annual Arts Week, March 12th-19th 2023 The Sou’wester was given over to 30+ artists and art collectives for a week of residency work, collaboration and exploration culminating in a weekend (Friday and Saturday) of music, studio tours, performances and installations.

Over the past 9 years we have held an event around this time of year to highlight the creative process and the experiential nature of the Sou’wester Residency Program. Each year this event brings amazing artists to this neck of the woods and shines creative light into the darkest heart of winter.

The focus of Arts Week 2023 was SHIFTING CYCLES:

“Our reliance on a known occurrence has been disrupted. This shift is replacing existing patterns and problems. Collective action and individual insight paving our path forward.”

2023 Participating Artists & Art Collectives:

On the weekend, Friday and Saturday March 17th and 18th, 2023 the public was invited, free and open to all, to tour the grounds and surrounding areas for a weekend full of installations, music, performances and open studios.
