SPACE on Ryder Farm

SPACE on Ryder Farm is a nonprofit residency program and organic farm located on the grounds of a 227-year-old family homestead in Putnam County, New York, just an hour north of New York City. SPACE’s mission is to create an environment singular in its ability to invigorate artists and innovators and their work, and to contribute to the sustainability and resourceful preservation of one of the oldest organic family farms on the East Coast.

SPACE was established for artists by artists with a simple philosophy: artists need time and space to do what they do best—create. Since our founding in 2011, artists, innovators, and changemakers have come to SPACE to do their most important work.

Through unique residency programs designed to serve artists of all stripes, social activists, nonprofit organizations, and parent-artists with their children, SPACE has welcomed over 1,550 residents; mentored more than 75 young professionals through fellowship and internship programs; and developed a national reputation as one of the most sought-after residency programs in the country. Through our intentional approach to arts and agriculture, SPACE on Ryder Farm provides a place to create, recharge, and commune. If you would like to support our mission, donate today.
