Fallingwater has always been a place for inspired thinking! When Edgar Kaufmann jr. entrusted Fallingwater and its surrounding property to the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy in 1963, he envisioned a place where artists, scholars and lovers of nature and the arts could explore new ideas.

Today, the Fallingwater Institute continues that vision through its Artist and Scholar-in-Residence Program, welcoming emerging and established creatives from a wide range of disciplines to live, study and work at Fallingwater.

Applications for 2028 residencies open September 1, 2026, through January 17, 2027. Residents receive on-site housing, a $1,000 stipend, studio access, transportation support and exceptional access to Fallingwater and Bear Run Nature Reserve.

Are you a creative thinker with an idea inspired by Fallingwater?
