Meet The 2025 ADKX Artists-In-Residence

The ADKX is pleased to announce the four artists selected for its new Artist-in-Residency program. This year, artists will live and work on site for one month, in June, July, August, and September.

During the residency periods, the artists will focus on creating their own body of work within the public areas of the museum grounds and guide activities in the museum’s Art Lab makerspace. The intention of this program is for artists to engage with the public while spending time pursuing their own creative works and be inspired by the natural areas that comprise and surround the museum’s campus, as well as key objects and stories within the collection.

Artists were selected through a highly competitive application process. The museum received 114 applications from artists in 41 different countries and six continents. Submissions included artists who work in a range of mediums including sound, digital, animation, painting, photography, sculpture, and performance. A committee comprised of ADKX staff as well as arts leaders in the region reviewed applications: Ruth Adams, co-Executive Director, Art Omi (Ghent, NY); Jon Donk, Managing Director, Lake Placid Center for the Arts (Lake Placid, NY); and Catherine Underhill, Executive Director, View Arts Center (Old Forge, NY).
