Art Cottage Residency Background

Richmond Beach Art Cottage is located on a scenic bluff in Richmond Beach Saltwater Park in Shoreline, WA, overlooking the Salish Sea. A former caretaker’s home, the Cottage provides an ideal setting for creative exploration, inviting artists to reflect on the site's thousands of years of history while enriching Shoreline’s cultural landscape. Since 2020, the Artist in Residence Program has offered artists space and time to experiment, engage the public, and explore the park’s history, landscape, and community connections.

All are welcome!
