Welcome to the residency blog. Due to being pulled in many directions including a renovation of a commerical space to expand offerings in the nearby town, Val has not been able to update the 2024 and 2025 seasons.
This is organized with most recent first, but you can use the keywords or the search magnifier glass option to look up specific people or disciplines. You can also view the interviews on the Camp Wonder Wander YouTube page.
