Housing
Housing is on site. There are private well-furnished rooms with bathrooms down the hall. Meal arrangements are up to each student who is responsible for preparing their own food. The town’s central market is a short 4 block walk away. There is a convenience market/deli a 2 block walk away. There are two new modern euro kitchens that are shared with other residents of the ICS. Each person gets an under-counter refrigerator with a cabinet/pantry above. The kitchens have multiple range tops in a center island. There are three sinks in counter tops in a horseshoe shape along the walls surrounding the center island. Dining tables and chairs are either in the kitchen space or the room next door. Although each individual is responsible for their own meals, usually those in attendance work out a rotation for cooking so that during the residency one or two cook for all the rest 3 or 4 times instead of everyday for one’s self. Everybody pitches in to clean up.
