Programs and events

Apply for a Residency

Craigardan welcomes applications for residencies of two weeks or more including ceramic, literary, visual, and performance artists, as well as farmers, chefs, activists, scholars, and researchers from around the Adirondack region and around the world, at any stage of their career.

Join the Community

Community courses and events foster the interaction between visiting artists and the local public. Together with our Adirondack community, we nurture a deep sense of place through people, culture, food, stories, and the exchange of ideas and skills.

Plan Your Visit

Visit us on the Farm and Farm Store Monday through Saturday, 9am-6pm. The Main Campus and grounds are currently open to the public only during courses and events or by advance appointment.
