The CORE RESIDENCY supports invited creatives with an adaptable residency that offers the space, time, and resources needed to make new work from concept to completion over an approximate two-year duration. It is a low residency program that connects the local community with nationally and internationally recognized persons through partnerships and programs. c3:initiative believes that art is a springboard for dialog and throughout the residency we collaborate with our Core Resident to create programs that highlights the themes and concepts they are engaging.

We at Stelo humbly acknowledge that our programming is being held on the traditional lands of the Multnomah, Kathlamet, Clackamas, bands of Chinook, Tualatin Kalapuya, Molalla and many other Tribes who made their homes along the Columbia (Wimahl) and Willamette (Whilamut) rivers.

​We offer respectful recognition to the Native communities in our region, and to those who have stewarded this land throughout the generations. Please consider the many legacies of violence, displacement, migration, and settlement that bring us together here today. We recognize the continual displacement of Native people by the United States and are committed to working to dismantle the ongoing effects of this settler colonial legacy. Please join us in respecting the contributions Indigenous peoples have, and continue to make to our community, country, and world.
