The Women's International Study Center (WISC) is seeking applicants for residential fellowships at Acequia Madre House™ in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The Acequia Madre House™ was designed, built and occupied by three generations of remarkable women of the same family: Eva Scott Muse Fenyes, Leonora Muse Curtin and Leonora Curtin Paloheimo. These three women were an active, creative presence in Santa Fe with demonstrated success in business, the arts and philanthropy, and notable for their own work as scholars of architecture, botany, ethnography and linguistics. Attracting sophisticated travelers from around the world, Santa Fe is famous for its art markets, music and museums. It also houses several prominent research and academic institutions. The region has beautiful scenery, year-round outdoor activities and a rich mix of American, Spanish Colonial and Native American history. Acequia Madre House™ is situated in Santa Fe's historic old Eastside where quiet narrow streets are lined with art galleries and world-renowned restaurants. Acequia Madre House™ is also conveniently located to museums and several research institutions.

The volunteering begins with you pitching your creative solutions to solving our communities' most critical needs.
