Byrdcliffe Colony, Arts and crafts colony in Woodstock, US.

The Byrdcliffe Colony spans 300 acres with 35 original buildings designed in the Arts and Crafts style, nestled in the Catskill Mountains of New York.

Ralph Radcliffe Whitehead and Jane Byrd McCall established Byrdcliffe Colony in 1902 as a response to industrial production, promoting individual handcrafted work.

The colony attracts painters, furniture makers, photographers, metalworkers, weavers, ceramicists, writers, and musicians who create and showcase their work.

Visitors can take self-guided walking tours through the grounds, explore the exhibition spaces, and purchase handcrafted items at the Byrdcliffe Shop.

The Artist-in-Residence program welcomes 75 artists each summer to work in various disciplines while living in the original Arts and Crafts buildings.
