Earthskin Creative Residency
Muriwai, New Zealand

It emphasizes permaculture principles, environmental stewardship, and community engagement, requiring residents to contribute through talks, workshops, exhibitions, or a gifted artwork (koha). Residencies typically last 4 weeks (extendable) or 1-3 months, with facilities including studios, housing, and gardens, though residents cover utilities and other costs.
