c3: Papermaking Residency
In partnership with Pulp & Deckle Studio
One month residencies, May-August 2018.

The c3: Papermaking Residency was established in 2014 to engage artists with little or no experience in hand papermaking, and offer them an opportunity to learn the craft and stretch the limitations of what the medium can do. Provided with instruction, guidance and technical assistance from a professional papermaker/artist at our studio, residents create and exhibit new work outside their usual area of practice.

Each year, four artists are selected for intensive month long residencies during which they work in our studio. Lead papermaker, Jenn Woodward provides guidance for residents to help realize their individual projects. She also educates and assists residents with all equipment use, fiber preparation, cleaning, and any other studio needs. Upon completion of the year-long studio residency, a group exhibition is held at c3:initiative or a partnering location.

Artists are selected via open call and a rotating  jury process. Finalists will be interviewed by c3:initiative and Pulp & Deckle staff members. Selected residents will be required to sign a contract prior to their residency.
​The residency focuses on illuminating possibilities within the medium of papermaking and encourages experimentation, risk, research, and collaborative learning. The group exhibition highlights hand papermaking as a contemporary art medium. 

RESIDENTS RECEIVE:
- An introductory group workshop at our studio with fellow papermaking residents 
-  A one month residency at our studio
- A materials stipend of $250
