Like nature, the Fine Arts Work Center abhors a
vacuum. There is never an empty moment, no
fallow interlude following the Fellowships. In May, June, and September, between the Winter Fellowship Program and the Summer Workshop Program, the Work Center invites former Fellows back to participate in the Returning Residency Program. For a modest fee, former Fellows can return to apartments and studios to renew both their work and their relationship to Provincetown.
During these in-between months, the hectic pace of the summer schedule and the burning intensity of the Winter Fellowship Program mellow and fade. The advantage is that everyone who participates in the Returning Residency Program has stayed at the Work Center before; they know the lay of the land and what to expect. Their expectations are simple-a measure of time removed from the bustle and worry of everyday life, a brief period that brings them back to what they care most about, their work and the community that supports them in their endeavors.
All former Winter Fellows and those who received residencies through other Work Center-related
programs are eligible to participate. All Returning Residencies are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, and are subject to space and time availability.
