Thematic residency programs for artists, writers & creative individuals Arteles Creative Center hosts over 120 artists per year in selected multidisciplinary groups of 12-15 creative individuals. The residency periods usually last 1-2 months and the program details vary depending on the program. Freedom for Creativity Arteles provides an inspiring and supportive environment with no stress or pressure. We allow creative individuals to focus on their very own thing, aims and being and we embrace personal growth, mindfulness and long-term progress. Our facilities and wide selection of creative equipment & gear support the artists' individual ways of working. We understand that creative process is always in a state of flux, and we encourage taking things beyond the conventional – out of the box.
