In addition to offering a unique experience to individual residents, we intend to partner with organizations with aligned missions and relationships. We believe partner organizations will benefit directly from their involvement in both the residency and the network of supporters we will cultivate. 

For example, a palliative care organization might fund stays for some of their caregivers. A foundation supporting artists might fund stays for their grantees. A landscape architectural foundation might support a group of emerging professionals to dream up new designs. The possibilities are endless.

Additionally, partners who share a close geographic proximity to the Garden could make use of our spaces for meetings, small community gatherings, or special projects, deepening their connection to this place. Those farther afield could connect their programming via video or other technology tools. We are excited to see what comes from this pilot project. 

We’re imagining new activations and uses of the Garden, opportunities for community engagement, and field building opportunities. We hope the creative works developed here will deepen participants’ practice and reach far and wide.
