A $200 non-refundable deposit is due with your registration. It is applied to your total cost. Watershed will invoice you for the remaining balance on your fees, which are due in full by August 1. Artists registering after August 1 should plan to pay their fees in full upon acceptance into the program.
  • Fall residents are housed in Watershed's heated, contemporary cabins that include private or shared bathrooms. Housing assignments are made on a first come, first served basis.
  • The $200 residency deposit reserves your spot in the residency and is applied to your total residency fees.
