Artist Residencies
Our Artist Residencies offer the perfect sanctuary to free yourself from the demands of daily life and unleash your artistic brilliance in a supportive and engaging community. Here, visual artists, musicians and writers have ample space, time and freedom to focus on their work and engage in the larger community of San Miguel de Allende, where they can enjoy gallery tours, openings, music venues and a myriad of other cultural, social, and artistic opportunities.
What To Expect
We offer two large live/work studios with ensuite bath and one small live/work space with a shared bathroom. All three spaces include an easel, work table, and materials storage. Residents have access to a rooftop terrace and fully-equipped shared kitchen.
Residencies range from a minimum of 3 weeks up to 3 months at prices shown below. All residents are responsible for their own transportation, food and materials.
Visiting artists will become part of our community working alongside local artists. You’ll have personalized introductions to galleries, artists, events and experiences around town. We will also provide you practical insights into essential art supplies, tools and where to find them.
Additional programs and classes such as life drawing, painting, ceramics and others may be offered at our studio and available at the time of your residency. Check our classes for dates and prices for these separate events.
Longer term residents (2-3 months) will have the option to present their work in an art show at the end of their stay.
Mentorship is available upon request.
