(Alaska) -- Denali National Park and Preserve is seeking applications from visual artists for the 2010 Artist-in-Residence Program. The program allows artists to reside in the historic East Fork cabin, located 43 miles into the park, for a ten day period between June and mid-September. In return, each artist donates to the park a piece of artwork that was inspired by their stay. Artists also offer a public presentation for visitors at the end of their residency. Many of the works created by artists-in-residence from previous years are on display in the Denali Visitor Center and the Eielson Visitor Center. Find details and the online application at
http://arts.alaskageographic.org. Applications must be submitted by October 31, 2009. For more information, please contact Kris Fister at 907/683-9583.
