Casa Lienzo Art Residency
About the residency:
Our residency is dedicated to providing a thoughtfully curated, welcoming space where international artists can immerse themselves in creation while experiencing the rich cultural and artistic heritage of Mexico City. We aim to foster cross-cultural connections by introducing resident artists to local curators, galleries, and fellow creators-cultivating an atmosphere that encourages artistic growth and collaboration across borders and mediums. Our aim is to become the best art residency in Mexico City!
We have cultivated relationships with local artisans skilled in diverse disciplines, including oil painting, acrylics, watercolors, ceramics, music technology, creative writing, sculpture, collage, screen printing, lithography, and more. As part of the residency, artists will have the opportunity to participate in three workshops led by these local experts, with the option to join additional workshops for a small fee.
To further enrich the residency experience, we offer guided tours of the city’s historical landmarks, museums, national galleries, and parks. For those seeking exploration beyond the city, our partners can organize excursions to the awe-inspiring pyramids of Teotihuacan, the picturesque Pueblo Mágicos, the serene Xochimilco canals, and scenic hiking trails.
During their residency, artists will work toward a group exhibition, hosted by our main gallery space, #Hashtag Gallery, during the final week of their stay. The exhibition runs from Thursday to Saturday and will open in conjunction with the gallery’s regularly scheduled shows to increase attendance and get more eyes on your work! We also offer an option for artists to extend their stay by an additional week to continue creating or exploring more of the city’s artistic offerings.
