Ross Lynn was an artist who favored, among the many crafts he practiced, the art of photography. From mountain climbing in Nepal to his family farm in North Louisiana, Ross photographed the world around him. It was not only a way to document his adventures, but an expression of himself and his perspective of life.
About the Residency
The Foundation encourages others to nurture their ability to express themselves and communicate their view of the world as Ross did through art.
The North Louisiana Artist-in-Residence follows a traditional residency model, supporting our mission to develop individuals and expand the arts community, specifically in North Louisiana. Each year, pairs or solo artists are chosen with freedom to work in any medium, creating an exhibition displayed in North Louisiana.

Our past artist residents have brought a diverse range of creative voices to our community, each leaving a lasting impact through unique exhibitions, installations, and collaborative projects.
The North Louisiana Virtual Residency
The North Louisiana Virtual Residency was created in partnership with the North Central Louisiana Arts Council (NCLAC) during 2020 in response to the COIVD-19 pandemic. Due to the success of the project we decided to continue it’s programming in 2021. The virtual residency allowed RLCF and NCLAC to support and encourage community among artists regardless of geographic location or medium. After 2021, the North Louisiana Virtual Residency was re-imagined into the North Louisiana Arts Interchange program. You can learn more about it here.
