The New Rockland Residency in the Central District Is So Cool

by Jen Graves • March 28, 2016

This is the house in the Central District where nine months of short-term rentals pays for three months of free artist residencies every year now, thanks to artists Shawn Landis and Jodi Rockwell. COURTESY OF SHAWN LANDIS AND JODI ROCKWELL

You know what, these artists are smart and there's nothing that smells like BS or needs unpacking in their press release—I particularly like that they want the artists to be part of the neighborhood—so I'm just going to let them tell you about the brand new Rockland Residency (emphases mine):

"It was life-changing."
