Residency

The Sonovor Artist Development Residency
Where artists are forged.
A one-week intensive artist development residency hosted at The Table — a legacy house, private studio, and full-spectrum creative sanctuary.
THE INVITE
You don’t need more studio time.
You need to be seen.
Not as content. Not as product.
As a voice with gravity — and a path that works.
The Sonovor Residency is not a course. It’s not a camp.
It’s a high-trust, high-outcome creative intensive built to clarify, activate, and launch serious artists.
You come for one week.
You stay at The Table — a house full of family, fire, and silence.
You leave with a system.
THE OUTCOME
What You Leave With
- A complete artist identity: voice, story, audience, edge
- A mapped monetisation model that matches your art
- A strategic release plan (content, calendar, context)
- A single or EP project outline (writing-to-release flow)
- Personal mentorship, creative support, full hospitality
- Optional: Recording and production with Skullcreek Studio
This is not conceptual. It’s conversion-ready.
You don’t just create here — you complete.
THE EXPERIENCE
This Is The Table
- Private or shared rooms, full access to studio
- Private cabin for solo artists
- Meals by Don and Carolyn — family-fed, not catered
- Grandkids in and out. Nana’s baking in the oven.
- Firepit conversations, 4am coffee, and a studio that listens
- Total silence — or total support. You choose.
WHO IT’S FOR
This is for:
- Artists who know they’re good — but are stuck in cycles
- Musicians who have been almost famous for too long
- Creators with a story to tell, but no system to tell it
- Labels, managers, or partners who want outcomes — not waitlists
- Indigenous leaders, educators, and backers building creative pipelines

This is an example of concept to full production release, with business, marketing, and growth support... in one week:
The Table is not a venue.
It’s the home you needed 10 years ago.
And it’s open now.
