“It was an incredible privilege to participate in the residency at Buffalo Creek Art Center. The beautiful and serene landscape, the top-quality accommodations and amenities, and the spacious workshop allowed me to focus solely on my art. I’m grateful to be part of this amazing art community, home to so many wonderful works. Steve and everyone else created a truly welcoming and comfortable environment, and sharing the experience with fellow artists made the whole residency even more enjoyable.”
