Aldo and Estella Leopold Residency

The Aldo and Estella Leopold Residency offers monthlong residencies in July and November to poets, fiction writers, and nonfiction writers in the late environmental essayist Aldo Leopold’s cabin in Tres Piedras, New Mexico. Writers exploring “the relevance of Aldo Leopold’s ideas to 21st century cultural and environmental issues” and/or “committed to reshaping the cultural story about the relationship between humans and nature” are eligible. An additional residency in July is offered in a single-room casita overlooking the Galisteo Basin Preserve in Galisteo, New Mexico. Residents in Tres Piedras and Galisteo both receive a travel and living stipend of $1,000 and are provided with a private room, kitchen, bathroom, and patio. To apply, submit a résumé and a statement of interest with a $20 application fee by February 16. Visit the website for more information.
