Art Farm’s mission is to support artistic vision, which may be impractical, obscure, and independent of commercial recognition—where failing is no less welcomed than succeeding. To offer artists, writers, performers, and others: studios, time, and resources for pursuing their range of expression, for experimenting, for developing projects, but most of all, for distilling the promise and potential of their creative enterprise, while working and living in a rural environment. They offer an artist and writer residency.

The John Michael Kohler Arts Center is a nonprofit museum in Wisconsin that offers a number of residency programs, including a unique collaboration between artists and industry.
