VICKSBURG, MICHIGAN - USA
About the Residency
Prairie Ronde Artist Residency offers artists from a range of disciplines a 5 – 7 week residency in the historic Village of Vicksburg, Michigan. We offer a unique environment for our artists to develop their craft: the 420,000 square foot former Lee Paper Company mill and its adjacent 80 acres of property.
PRAIRIE RONDE AND THE MILL
Prairie Ronde is hosted by The Mill at Vicksburg, a redevelopment project of the former Lee Paper Company mill, whose extensive and ongoing plans focus on sustainability.
Our goal is to bring artists into the space to engage with The Mill’s historic legacy and its monumental transformation.

Kat Bawden
Kat Bawden explores and mediates relationships between body, memory and self. Working with sensitivity to our physiological connection to light, her photography, video installations and live performances activate viewers’ bodies as a medium for somatic experience and emotional exchange.
Merry Sun
Merry Sun is an artist whose work dwells between the sonic, visual and written. She constructs compositional infrastructures to address the sense of “unbelonging” that accompanies movement and migration.
