2023 Windgate Arts Residency in Wood


The Windgate Arts Residency Program in Wood (widely known as the International Turning Exchange, or ITE) is a collegial experience in which the resident Fellows explore new work through research, exploration, and collaboration. 

Now in its twenty-sixth year, this renowned residency offers artists specializing in the material of wood the opportunity to test their vision and skill, while developing connections with colleagues, collectors, and the city of Philadelphia.
