“Sharing our artistic practices with another family in residency, and bonding over challenges was incredibly fulfilling, adding a deeper, more personal layer to my stay, making it a joyous and memorable experience. Interlude’s delicious dinner gatherings brought together local artists and curators, creating an atmosphere of community. Another standout feature is the kid’s studio–a special space where my daughter could unleash her creativity without any constraints. Watching her enjoy her own art-making process added a joyful dimension to our stay.”
