Thisismyusername7 Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 (edited) Okay y’all it’s that first week in April, the week we typically hear back from Skowhegan. Any bets on when we’ll get the email? I did notice that on their FAQs they changed it from saying we would hear back “in April” to “by the end of April”. Do you think that’s just to mitagate against all the calls they get around this time? It would seem bonkers to hear back about a 3 month residency that starts in June with only a month’s notice. Edited April 4, 2019 by Thisismyusername7 Typo
jbsp Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 Wow didn’t know it change to late April. I emailed them late feb, and they told me they expect to send out the result first week of April...
cpw0021 Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 they seem pretty behind on things this year---they still haven't announced the faculty for this summer. that being said, I do hope they let us know this week or next at the latest.
jbsp Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 agreed...i have a residency hanging there i feel really bad dragging this with Skowhegan...
210benefit Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 also someone waiting on a response from skowhegan here to just say hello! i think i might know about one of the resident faculty for this yr, but that's just thru personal relationships (the faculty member would be a friend of a friend) so not anything 100% confirmed Thisismyusername7 1
Thisismyusername7 Posted April 6, 2019 Author Posted April 6, 2019 210 benefit, do share. ? Kaji Irukazu, is Monday/Tuesday your best guess or did you give them a call?
Kaji Irukazu Posted April 6, 2019 Posted April 6, 2019 I checked the previous timeline, and they usually sent emails on the first week of April. If not, the next Sunday/Monday/Tuesday will be the notification dates. Thisismyusername7 1
artapplicant Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 did u all include descriptions/comments with each piece you submitted?
Thisismyusername7 Posted April 7, 2019 Author Posted April 7, 2019 I did, but I always forget to screenshot the application, so that I can look back at which pieces I submitted since you can't get back into the portal. Did anyone submit with video?

Did anyone submit with video? you actually have the option to download the entire application before submitting--I do it each time so I can remember what I submitted (since this is my third or fourth try....?) I also, for the first time in a while, added descriptions for all the pieces.
jbsp Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 submitted videos i think you have to submit description since there is no room for an artist statement.
Kaji Irukazu Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 I submitted images and videos. The total is 2 min and a half.

But again I've only heard that through word of mouth amongst friends
Thisismyusername7 Posted April 8, 2019 Author Posted April 8, 2019 For those who submitted video have you seen plays at the end of March? If so, then they might still be on the typical time line and we might hear back early this week. 210benefit, oh snap, Chitra Ganesh is one of my all time favorites, she's a visionary! 210benefit 1
BBQGGe Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 They played my videos twice in past week, and reload them during the weekend. I guess they were making their decision. Thisismyusername7 1
TheBarnOwl Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Hi all, last year it was April 9 that I received a rejection from Skowhegan, and based on previous forums they send out rejections first, and then acceptances. So I guess let's all hope for no news tomorrow! Not sure if it will be the same this year, though. Also, does anyone remember the actual dates of the residency? Aside from "9-week summer program" I can't seem to locate the exact start and end dates.
