Apply

Congratulations to our inaugural 2024 AG Artist’s: Anna Desfor, McKenna Blenk, William Brown, Jade Hails, Luke Helker, Michael Jones, Ethan Strickland, and Malcolm Taylor

Application submission deadline for 2024 is now closed.

2024’s theme is “Music and Land: Telling our Stories.”
Fellows from underrepresented communities are especially encouraged to apply, and all Gatherings will create an environment that welcomes diverse musical practices and personal histories. Applicants should include:

1) A personal statement of no more than 500 words, describing their practice and outlining what is most important to them in their ongoing development.

2) A small list of solo works for possible inclusion on the evening concerts. We welcome audition materials on any and all percussion instruments.

3) 2-3 work samples of recent work, preferably on video (with link). We welcome audition materials on any and all percussion instruments.

Since the program will be limited to only 6 participants, the first 30 people to apply will be given first consideration. Additional applications will reviewed if space remains available. 

Once chosen, we will ask the Fellows to pay a $150 administrative fee, refundable when the Fellow arrives in Arcata. Additionally, Marimba One has generously offered a $500 stipend for each Fellow to help with transportation to and from Arcata.
