Visual artists are invited to apply for the Curious George Cottage residency with the Margret and H.A. Rey Center.
The program gives artists an opportunity to pursue and share their art and artistic process while surrounded by the inspiring landscape of the White Mountains. Through the program, the Rey Center will provide a space and platform for the artist to work, and create the spark that ignites him or her and the entire community to embrace the arts.
Margret and H.A. Rey, authors of the Curious George children’s book series and former summer residents of Waterville Valley, were artists and adventurers, historians and naturalists, gardeners and stewards.
Apply at thereycenter.org before April 3.
