Located where redwoods meet the Pacific Ocean on coastal Pomo land, Re-formed is a 7-week Artist in Residency program at the Mendocino Art Center designed for artists working in the jewelry arts. This residency provides an opportunity for artists to deepen their practice in a spacious studio with an ocean view while engaging in a supportive artist community.
The structure of the residency will be self-directed and up to the participants on how they would like to spend their time.
