Established in 2021, Lunder Institute residential fellowships provide artists with spacious studios as well as opportunities for collaboration with Colby College faculty, students, and staff, the Waterville community, and the Maine arts community. This studio program, based out of the Greene Block + Studios in downtown Waterville, Maine, encompasses artists at all stages of their careers and working in a range of artistic disciplines and mediums. Resident fellows are provided with housing and a stipend, have access to Colby College campus facilities, and are in dialogue with local organizations and community members.

Joining the program this year are Shasha Dothan, a Brooklyn-based artist working with video and installation, Tessa Greene O’Brien, a Maine-based artist and curator with a multi-faceted painting practice, Dylan Hausthor, an artist based on the coast of Maine, and Gamaliel Rodríguez, a visual artist based in Puerto Rico who works with pencil, ink, acrylic, and ballpoint pen.
