La Nueva fábrica

Founded in 2013, La Nueva Fábrica is a non-profit contemporary art space based in Antigua, Guatemala, that works to empower diverse communities through art. With a clear commitment to supporting artistic experimentation, critical thinking, and social justice, it seeks to create pedagogical opportunities through art and visual culture. Their initiatives include exhibitions, public programs, educational and sustainable development projects, artistic residencies, and multidisciplinary workshops.

The Grant will be used to support the 2024 residency program and the launch of a social inclusion and gender axis for Centroamerican artists. The residency is open to artists, curators, educators, students, and diverse communities, and focuses on the management and development of selected projects, providing support and guidance to participants in their respective languages.
