Get matched →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 that includes a natural park of about 230 acres. Artists are given the space, freedom, and encouragement to explore and experiment with their work. The backbone of ArteSumapaz is the community created here of artists, makers, and environmentalists who often gain inspiration from one another and enjoy lively and interesting discussions.
Residency duration is 1–3 months. Accommodation includes a private room with a double bed, private bathroom with hot water, desk, and storage space. Other accommodation options and prices are available upon inquiry.
ArteSumapaz welcomes artists from a wide range of disciplines, including visual arts, sculpture, ceramics, dance, theater, printmaking, performing arts, music, writing, film, architecture, and educational programs.
Each artist decides how to employ their time. Three vegetarian meals are provided daily, and residents are asked to clear their dishes after each meal. Artists are cordially invited to participate in weekly art critiques, impart workshops, or organize exhibitions, but none of this is mandatory. The only mandatory meeting is the weekly community meeting, held at lunchtime. Artists are also asked to respect community and house rules.
