About us

GRACIA is a Guatemalan-owned and artist-run project established in 2019. 

Our mission is to promote a broader and engaging dialogue across countries, cultures, and research fields. We achieve this through residencies, creative education, and public programs, with a focus on cross-cultural exchange, artistic practice, and personal exploration.

  • Located in Antigua Guatemala, our residency hosts and collaborates with international & local creatives across all fields to support research, creation and connection surrounding creative work, process and purpose.

    Our residency program is focused on your creative practice and all the ways it can manifest.

  • Our workshops and retreats bring together both international and local creatives to explore and learn about traditional and ecological techniques. We offer a range of experiences, from day workshops to week-long immersive retreats.

    Our programs aim to foster creativity, connection, and a deep understanding of sustainable practices in a supportive and inspiring environment.

  • In 2023, we opened La Casita, a house of creation and a gathering place to foster connection. La Casita hosts our residencies, educational, and public programs. It is a space that welcomes interdisciplinary artists, makers, and creatives from around the world, generating an international network in a sustainable environment.
