“The most inspiring oasis in the Midwest..” – Actor/Director/Playwright Jesse Eisenberg
The Hundredth Hill is located on 50 wooded acres just north of Bloomington, and has hosted countless writers, artists, thinkers, and musicians. We offer self-funded retreat and workshop space, and fully-funded semi-annual residencies. We are predominately a writing (all genres, including playwrights, screenplay writers, academics, music and composition) residency, and issue semi-annual call-outs for applications.
Featuring (4) original, upcycled, and finely-crafted residences, unique performance spaces, and a world class recording studio space, The Hundredth Hill offers artists and others a quiet, inspiring retreat in the rolling green woodlands of South Central Indiana. Make your way to The Hundredth Hill to create, think, reconnect with your work, and make progress on world-changing projects. Explore our residences, recording studio, workshop, and performance spaces and reserve a day-long or weeks-long retreat for yourself or your organization today. We offer our lowest nightly/weekly rates to Indiana artists.
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation, and gratefully accept tax-deductible donations to continue the work of supporting Indiana artists, and artists from the region and wider world.
