The Hortus Residency Program is open to established and emerging artists, botanical artists, or photographers, who are exploring the themes of nature and/or the human connection with nature. Hortus Arboretum & Botanical Garden is an accredited botanical garden and arboretum established by two artists turned gardeners. The purpose of this residency is to provide opportunities to artists whose work focuses on nature. The residency would allow artists to have constant access to the botanical garden and produce art derived from that experience in a quiet natural setting.
