Residency in Colombia -May 2023

ArteSumapaz is a non-profit arts and culture center located on a magical piece of terrain in the Andean mountains, about three hours outside Bogotá. The artist residency program (AIR) is designed for visual artists, musicians, writers, architects, clay artists, performers, and other makers. It is a self-directed residency, where artists have full access to studio spaces of all kinds (visual art, music, movement, writing, etc.) throughout the vast and beautiful campus. Artists are given the space, freedom, and encouragement to explore and experiment with their own work. The artists are welcome to participate in weekly “open critique” sessions (group discussions about their work), to share workshops or exhibitions.

Ready for Post-COVID-19? AIR in remote Colombian center for the arts

Inspired by the legacy of such great residencies as Yaddo and Macdowell, we've designed our Artist-in-Residency program to be one in which visual artists, writers, musicians, and other makers, have the opportunity to experience profound growth. We believe there are three major aspects that can help contribute to break-through: inspiring working space; being surround by awesome nature; and commensality with like-minded souls.
