chashama North is a residency program for artists and writers designed as a nourishing environment within which great artwork is born. The program offers live and work space for seven rotating artists-in-residence from June-October. chaNorth provides artists with a setting that nurtures their body, allowing their artistic practice to flourish. The residency fosters a culture of both serious artistic production and play. Participants emerge from the residency sated both physically and artistically, many commenting that they have never had a healthier month, or a more productive one. The communal kitchen is stocked with fresh, local organic produce and whole grains. Cooperatively prepared daily meals with a focus on whole foods act as the anchor of the residency program. Residents are asked to contribute a few hours per week working at a local organic farm, allowing artists the opportunity to interact with the environment, the community and agricultural history of the Hudson Valley.
