The Joshua Tree Highlands Artist Residency (JTHAR) was established in 2007 to give artists the time and space to create against the backdrop of a spectacular national park at the intersection of the Mojave and Colorado Deserts. The program is designed to nurture creativity, experimentation, reflection, and cultural exchange with the local community.
The seven-week summer residencies include scholarship funds, living accommodations, and studio space, and JTHAR offers year-round monthly residencies as well. Residents live in one of five mountain-view homes that are located just outside Joshua Tree National Park, known for its spiky-leafed yucca trees and giant rock formations. JTHAR invites professional and amateur artists across all media — including drawing, painting, photography, sculpture, film, video, new media, installation, writing, and architecture — to apply to the program.
