Sponsor a Seasonal Dinner
with Stelo
About the Seasonal Dinner Series
Stelo Arts Seasonal Dinners at Camp Colton are culinary celebrations of the Pacific Northwest and the shifting rhythms of the forest. Held three times a year (Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, and the BigLeaf Maple Dinner), these intimate evenings gather our community around a shared table.
Each event begins with a hands-on workshop or land stewardship activity, followed by a social hour and a curated five-course feast prepared by local chefs. It is an opportunity for guests to connect with the land, support local makers, and come together in the heart of the forest.

Tier 3: The Shared Table Sponsor (Pay-It-Forward)

- Raffle Prizes: Local goods, wellness products, gift cards, or unique experiences to be raffled off to our guests.
Sponsor Benefits:
