Ragdale is a non-profit artist residency program located on Arts and Crafts architect Howard Van Doren Shaw’s country estate in Lake Forest, 30 miles north of Chicago.  In 1976, the Shaw family’s summer home was transformed into an artist’s retreat to provide time and space for artists to create important new work.  Today, Ragdale hosts more than 150 artists each year - writers and composers at all stages of their career for 2-4 week residencies, making it the one of the largest interdisciplinary artist communities in the country.  For more information, www.ragdale.org
