The Red Barn Studio Museum welcomes Megan Coleman-Watkin of New Orleans, as Artist-in-Residence, November 16-December 7. Working in writing, Megan will spend her residency creating a series of essays based on conversations with Lindsborg artists about their work, creativity, and how art contributes to healing and community.

Megan is a licensed mental health provider and lifelong artist who uses her background in psychology, social work, and the arts to explore how creative expression supports emotional well-being. Her residency project will combine written essays with recorded interviews to document the stories of Lindsborg artists and their connection to place.

The Red Barn Studio Museum is located at 212 S. Main Street. The museum is open Tuesday-Friday, 10:00am-5:00pm and Saturday-Sunday, 1:00-5:00pm. The Raymer Society’s Artist-in-Residence program is sponsored in part by the Kansas Creative Arts Industry Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts.
