The romance of running away to be an artist in Taos, never grows old. Georgia O’Keeffe did it, as did many others. Now it’s your turn. Make a plan to join 12 other artists and spend a week in our studio at the Mabel Dodge Luhan House. Here, inspired by the creative environment, and nourished with meals from Mabel’s kitchen, you’ll have five full days to let your art flourish. This is the magic of our unique artist-in-residence program. Do you have a project you’ve been wanting to start? A painting you’ve been longing to work on? A drawing practice that needs some attention and inspiration? Have a new artistic endeavor that needs a week to explore? This is the place you’ve been looking for. Be inspired by the spirit of Taos, Mabel Dodge Luhan and her beautiful home.

The Taos Studio Retreat offers a Communal Studio Residency, with many opportunities for Taos area field trips. This is not a workshop and there is no formal instruction. This special week is for artists and creatives who enjoy working independently in a creative community. Each participant has a single room with breakfast and dinner provided by Mabel’s kitchen.
