CÍNE Artist Residencies
Fiscally Sponsored by The Art of Elysium
Creating What Outlives Us
CINÉ Artist Residencies bring together the world’s most visionary artists—filmmakers, fine artists, photographers, designers, and storytellers—to create without commercial limits. Backed by the resources and production power of a Hollywood set or a world-class museum, CINÉ offers a rare opportunity for artists to explore their boldest ideas, fully supported.
Each residency is designed to produce once-in-a-lifetime work that educates, inspires, and moves culture forward long after the cameras stop rolling.
A Shared Mission:
Art as Transformation
At The Art of Elysium, we believe in the power of art to heal, connect, and transform lives. Our mission is to build communities of artists who serve individuals navigating trauma, illness, displacement, and isolation. CINÉ aligns deeply with this ethos—providing space for authentic, human-centered stories to be told, preserved, and shared.
In an era increasingly shaped by algorithm-generated content, CINÉ stands as a living archive of human creativity. It uplifts the voices of artists pushing boundaries, challenging norms, and reminding us of what it means to be fully, vulnerably alive.
Our Partnership
As a fiscally sponsored project under The Art of Elysium’s Film Programming initiative, CINÉ operates under our nonprofit umbrella. This partnership allows supporters of CINÉ to make tax-deductible contributions toward the residency’s mission—while we provide administrative stewardship, charitable oversight, and donor receipting in compliance with 501(c)(3) regulations.
We are proud to support CINÉ as it builds a platform for transformative, artist-led innovation.
