HERMITAGE FOR ARTISTS: Kay Flavell is developing an independent organization called the New Pacific Studio. Its purpose is "to foster international exchanges and experiments in the humanities and environmental sciences in Pacific cities, and to serve as a Resource Center for information on contemporary Pacific artists, writers, exhibitions, and book/arts festivals."

The Studio also "promotes collaborations between schools, museums, and libraries," she says, "and seeks more representation in North American and European Museums for the contemporary voices and stories of Pacific indigenous and migrant peoples."

One aspect of the undertaking is a "hermitage" program that would allow artists to stay for two weeks in otherwise unused living quarters in Pacific America or Asia Pacific (including Australia and New Zealand), for a fee $100. These accommodations-vacant apartments, spare rooms in houses, and the like-would be provided by their owners, but would not necessarily include studio space. Flavell is currently seeking such places, as well as artists to stay in them. At least two are available currently, one in Benicia CA and one in Menlo Park. In addition, she is looking for prospective partners to purchase an old rural property that could be used as a hermitage.
