Due to Tláloc the artists residency in Cuernavaca is closed until Feb 2025. We are just as disappointed as you are, but we cannot host with the current conditions. Please check out our amazing online residency program.

Online Residency
“Working with PRPGMX (Art Gallery Studios) has been a heartwarming experience from the very beginning when I joined my first online residency in 2020. The artists I met since then constitute a rainbow of personalities, passions, and art practices. Ye

Join Our Residency Program and Activate Your Studio

Are you an artist seeking a supportive community and exhibition opportunities? Our residency program is here to elevate your artistic journey and prepare you for international exhibition opportunities.

Create: You are making time and space away from the distractions of daily life to create in the environment of Jardines de Tlatlanango. We are literally at the end of the road and not even visible on Google Maps view. However, that doesn’t mean you don’t have all the conveniences to make your daily life easy.

Why Cuernavaca? We realized that the costs outweighed the benefits when we were in the city's center. We provide a safe, clean, and accessible city with a climate of eternal spring. There is a calmness here that will wrap you in comfort and allow you to focus on your work while enjoying the culture of Mexico. Cuernavaca is a cultural hub - a pueblo magico that will enter your imagination with its museum, cultural centers, and la comida! However, many potential day trips offer a more diverse experience of the true history of Mexico. It’s a feast for the eyes, stomach, and artistic soul. You can see some of the offerings Lonely Planet and Trip Advisor.

You Are Home: You are at home when you are an artist in residency. We do everything we can to make you feel comfortable. You have a private bathroom and bedroom, access to a fantastic kitchen that opens to the garden patio, your studio space that can be customized to your needs, and you are within walking distance of many things.

Studio Visits: Connect with peers and curators, share your progress, and receive valuable feedback. You decide how much interaction or non-interaction you need to be successful. We are here to support your studio with activity and/or silence. What would you say works best for you?

Technical & Conceptual Support: Overcome challenges and refine your art. We will work with you to provide support for your materials, processes, and thinking at the level of interaction you may need. We have connections to many different people with skill sets that will help you through your work to completion. (Please remember that additional costs may be, as is customary when activating a carpenter or other skilled labor. However, the costs of these services in Mexico are a fraction of what you might pay in the USA.)

Social Connections: Build relationships with fellow artists and immerse yourself in studio culture.

Exhibition Opportunities: Work towards showcasing your art at prestigious galleries like Artsy, Art Gallery Studios, Art Fairs in CDMX, and partner galleries in Los Angeles, Ventura, and Austin.

Exhibition Focus: Over 80% of our residency participants have exhibited with Art Gallery Studios. Our residency program is exhibition-driven, preparing you for group or solo exhibitions.

Curator Guidance: Could you get expert feedback on your exhibition projects? You can work towards honoring goals set by your studio and advance your visibility. You will be offered one-on-one time with the curator to deepen your progress.

    February to May:
    Queer Summer Allied Voices

    Our artist residency program, passionately dedicated to queer and queer-allied artists, is eagerly preparing for a momentous occasion: our participation in the 5th Annual Summer Pride show. This year's residency is especially designed to culminate in an expressive and impactful exhibition, celebrating the themes and essence of Pride. We warmly invite artists who identify as queer or are allies of the queer community to join us in this creative endeavor. The journey of our residency will lead to a dynamic and heartfelt display at our partner gallery in Ventura, CA, marking a special collaboration for this year's event. As we commemorate the fifth anniversary of the Summer Pride show, we look forward to showcasing the diverse and vibrant artistic expressions that embody the spirit of our community and resonate with the values of Pride.

    June
    Due to our exhibition in Ventura, CA we will be closed the first week of June and a few days at the end of June. We will gladly accept applications for up to 21 days following our opening on June 1. For this residency you would join a future exhibtion and potentially do a solo exhibition on the Artsy platform. Please note that CDMX Pride is Saturday June 29th. There is a robust bus service to take you to the center in 1 hour 15 minutes.

    July to October
    Dia de los Muertos
    While our program and the resulting exhibition are inspired by the themes intrinsic to Dia de los Muertos, we encourage our artists to explore these concepts in ways that are original and distinct from the festival itself. This approach allows for a creative exploration that respects and honors the traditional aspects of the festival, yet provides a unique perspective, enhancing the depth and breadth of the artistic dialogue initiated by this cultural event.

    October to January
    Art Week CDMX 2025

    Join our artist residency program, strategically timed with Art Week CDMX 2025, the epicenter of Latin America's contemporary art scene. Our residency offers artists an unparalleled opportunity to immerse themselves in the vibrant atmosphere and diversity of one of the largest contemporary art markets in the region. This period aligns with Art Week CDMX, providing our residents not just a space for creation but also for inspiration and connection with the forefront of contemporary art. It's an ideal platform for artists to engage with new trends, network with art professionals, and showcase their work in a context that celebrates the vitality of contemporary art.

  • While we aspire to offer all these invaluable opportunities at no cost to the artists, the reality of achieving this is quite challenging. However, our residency program stands out by offering high levels of engagement and diverse exhibition opportunities at a fraction of the cost of traditional residency programs, which often have more limited outcomes.

    We provide artists with a vibrant connection to an active creative studio arts community, emphasizing exposure across multiple platforms such as publishing, podcasts, group and solo exhibitions, both online and in physical spaces like Mexico City, Mexico, and other partner locations.

    Our commitment is to empower artists by offering these extensive opportunities, ensuring their voices are heard and their work is seen in a dynamic and supportive environment.
