Residencies
We like to learn and innovate constantly. We believe in the exchange of knowledge with other artists, and for this, we created our residency program aimed at fostering multidisciplinary exchanges, intercultural meetings, as well as networks of contribution among creators, in which cultural practices are strengthened and the reciprocity of ideas, knowledge, and skills benefits the community. Mogote, JYMA Jewelry, Palo que Habla, and the Jacobo and María Ángeles Workshop open their doors for you to have a residency with us. For now, these are only carried out by invitation.
The idea is for you to work with the team to understand our processes and get inspired to produce your work, while sharing your knowledge and processes with our team, either in the form of a workshop or in another format that we decide together. In the end, we can have a small exhibition of the pieces produced by you and our team during your residency.
