Misty Hollow Residency
An opportunity to engage the land in ecocentric projects that explore approaches from multiple disciplines within the humanities and sciences
Artist Residency
Misty Hollow is a private Artist Residency on 25+ acres on the Slippery Rock Creek, close to McConnell's Mills, Allegayne Park, and the Monastery of the Transfiguration. Asia Ward, the lead artist, created Misty Hollow in 2024 as a three year research project for her artistic practice. In 2027 Misty Hollow will transition into an organization. The goal of Misty Hollow is to provide space for artists and other disciplines to use Misty Hollow, the land, the resources, the environment in a sustainable way as an opportunity to create ephemeral or artifact driven projects. In its three year research period, Misty Hollow will be building small cabins, developing trails, and building relationships with local universities, environmental and cultural organizations. Misty Hollow is not open to the public except by appointment and invitation. If you are interested in working on a project about Misty Hollow, please click to learn more.

Intro
The Land of Misty Hollow
Founding
Misty Hollow is a privately owned property of 25+ wooded acres. On one end of the property is a residence where the lead artist and founder Asia Ward lives with her husband and two cats. Ward and her husband fell in love with the property’s ecosystem and natural beauty and purchased the property with the intent to start an art and science residency. In 2024 Ward began a three year research project, opening the property to art and science projects that would help shape the formal residency she will launch in 2027.
