okay awesome,

but let’s hear it from the artists

My residency at the Ou Gallery was a great mix of getting to know other talented artists and having dedicated time and space to to work on my own projects. All of the spaces are welcoming and inspiring, and with nature so close, I felt a sense of calm the whole time. It was truly what I needed!

The Ou-Telier is a rare gift of time, care, and creative belonging. Thoughtfully designed and deeply supportive, it offered exactly what I needed. Space to trust my process, connect with other artists, and step more fully into my identity as an artist

My time at The Ou-Telier was exceptional. The team was thoughtful, patient, and deeply supportive, creating an environment that felt both welcoming and well organized. The housing was comfortable and thoughtfully arranged, and the studio was truly a dream—its expansive workspace and large table allowed me to spread out, experiment freely, and fully immerse myself in the creative process.
