ACM Residency at Shannaghe in Belfast, Maine

After offering the residency to ACM for two years, the owners of Shannaghe decided to offer, instead, a free residency to a writer in the caring fields. We are grateful to Shannaghe owner and former ACM staffer Lee Reilly for gifting a residency to ACM nonfiction contest winners in 2023 and 2024.

Theresa Dietrich won the ACM nonfiction prize in 2024, receiving publication in ACM and a stay at Shannaghe. Brendan Toh won second place and publication, and Nancy Erhard won third and publication. Paula Carter was the first nonfiction winner in 2023.

Writers and artists may apply on their own to stay at Shannaghe. The cost is $25 to apply, and $100 a week, though scholarships are available.
