All One One All Farm opens fourth artists in residence season

All One One All Farm in Goshen is turning its 14-acre landscape into a working art site again, opening its fourth Artists in Residence season with Bam Bowen and Christiane O’Banion as the 2026 residents.

From April through October, the two artists are visiting the farm weekly and drawing from the site’s vegetable gardens, orchards, pollinator habitats, heritage livestock and silvopasture. The program is built for public access as much as studio work: AOOA says the residency includes creative workshops, a July meet-the-artist and artist showcase, a mid-season public presentation during Upstate Art Weekend, and a fall art show that will gather the finished work.

For Orange County, the appeal is as local as it gets. The residency places art inside a farm setting in Goshen, where residents can see how agriculture, education and culture overlap on the same property rather than encounter the work only in a gallery. AOOA describes itself as a non-profit regenerative silvopasture farm, farm stand, eatery, distillery and education center in New York’s Mid-Hudson Valley, and the residency extends that identity beyond food and farming into hands-on community programming.

Bowen, who is based in Newburgh, works in sculpture, collage, painting and embroidery. O’Banion, who is based in Goshen, focuses on botanical watercolor and work that examines native plants and the pollinators that depend on them. Together, their practices fit the farm’s landscape, where living systems are part of the setting and the subject.

AOOA’s own event listing places Upstate Art Weekend at the farm on June 26-28, giving residents a clear window to visit during the season’s midpoint programming. The final exhibition is set for October, when the residency’s finished pieces will be shown after months of work on the farm.

The program’s home on Craigville Road underscores how firmly rooted it is in Goshen, a village that also serves as the seat of Orange County government and is known for its farmland, parks, downtown businesses and local festivals. For a farm that says it was founded by Ariane Daguin and Alix Daguin, the residency has become one more way to connect the county’s rural landscape with public cultural life.
