EXAMPLE APPLICATION

Please note, we will not be accepting any official applications until GROTA is funded and renovations are nearly complete in preparation for residents. An official application page will go live 6-9 months before our first term of residency. The application and any price estimations below are assuming a large percentage of Patreon funding waiving residency Fees, as stretch funding is met prices will decrease and more grant opportunities will become available!

‘’Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring,

Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill’d with the foolish,

Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)

Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of the objects mean, of the struggle ever renew’d,

Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me,

Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest me intertwined,

The question, O me! so sad, recurring—What good amid these, O me, O life?

Answer.

That you are here—that life exists and identity,

That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.’’


— Walt Whitman 1819-1892


‘’That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse.

What will your verse be?”


— John Keating, Dead Poets Society
