EAD Artist Retreat Opportunity

Location: Oakland, CA 94610


More about this opportunity

This is the private residence of Emily Arden (Emily Arden Design) located in Oakland, CA. The apartment will be available for six weeks, June 27-August 7 in six day increments (Sunday-Saturday). Easy walking distance to Lake Merritt, plus the shops on Lakeshore and Grand Ave. There is free street parking.


This is a one bedroom, one bath apartment with plenty of natural light. There is a desk, a small dining area, kitchen, and living room. WiFi included. Coin-operated laundry onsite. The apartment will be cleaned with eco-friendly products in between each stay.


Because this is a private apartment and not a dedicated artist space, there are certain parameters. I know this will exclude many people and I hope to have a space in the future that accommodates all who may be interested in.


Please read these requirements to ensure you will be a good fit for this opportunity

  • One person, working individually (at least while in the apartment)

  • 2nd floor walk-up with no elevator

  • Noise levels should be kept to a minimum while inside

  • No harmful chemicals or messy supplies

  • No smoking

  • No pets


There will be a sliding scale fee, which includes the six day stay, utilities, WiFi.

Check in will be Sunday after 11am. Check out will be Saturday by 3pm.
