McDowell Colony : ウィキペディア英語版 | MacDowell Colony
The MacDowell Colony is an artists' colony in Peterborough, New Hampshire, United States, founded in 1907 by Marian MacDowell, pianist and wife of composer Edward MacDowell. She established the institution and its endowment chiefly with donated funds. She led the colony for almost 25 years, against a background of two world wars, the Great Depression, and other challenges. Over the years, an estimated 6,000 artists have been supported in residence, including the winners of at least 61 Pulitzer Prizes. The colony has accepted artists, composers, playwrights, poets, and writers, both well-known and unknown. ==Description== The colony is a community of between 20 and 30 artists, who generally share breakfast and dinner in a common dining room. They frequently engage in group activities in the evenings. Stays average four to five weeks and are limited to two months. Room and board are free, and some residents also receive help with travel expenses. Each artist is assigned one of 32 studios for personal use, available on a 24-hour-a-day basis. Each studio is a separate building with power, heat, simple amenities, lunch delivered, and no telephone. Artists allow visitors by invitation only. Studios are secluded, located throughout the Colony's extensive property.
