The William Steeple Davis Trust artist-in-residence program was established in 1976 under the will of Mr. Davis to “provide a temporary place of abode for persons of good character who are or have been actively engaged in cultural professions, particularly in the arts, and who are without adequate funds to provide for such accommodations.” Past residents’ endeavors have included painting, photography, writing, sculpture, poetry, architecture, and music.
The Davis house and studio are located in Orient, on the eastern end of the North Fork of Long Island, New York. The village is approximately 100 miles from New York City. The modest house and studio are in a quiet location within sight of Orient Harbor, and walking distance of public beaches, open fields and marshes, a post office and a small country store. Residence in the house would be possible without a car, but quite inconvenient. Pets cannot be accommodated and smoking is prohibited in both the house and studio.
The William Steeple Davis Trust of Orient, NY is now accepting applications for an artist-in-residence for the period of October 15, 2025 - October 1, 2026. Applications are due by April 30, 2025.
