Event Overview

The Nature Conservancy in New York’s Andy Warhol Visual Arts Program is accepting applications for artists through July 6.

The program seeks artists to lead an outdoor workshop in fall 2025 at the Andy Warhol Preserve, an ocean-front property in Montauk donated to The Nature Conservancy by the Andy Warhol Foundation in 1992. It is a rare opportunity to visit and lead a workshop at a storied property that is generally closed to the public.

Supported by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, The Andy Warhol Visual Arts Program has created a community of artists, students and educators who convene to celebrate the beauty and artistry of the natural world.
