Located in the heart of Eastsound, iolair is dedicated to creative intention. This gallery offers contemporary artists a serene live-work space in the heart of a vibrant island town, to connect with themselves, their practice, nature, and the local community.
A new artist residency, iolair (Gaelic for eagle; eye-oh-LAIR) is unfurling on beautiful Orcas Island, Washington. iolair’s living and studio space will host established and rising artists from around the globe, allowing them to immerse deeply in creative practice and share their work with our island community. Visiting artists are selected by invitation, by a nominating committee of contemporary arts professionals.
