Ruta del Castor is a non-profit organization that emerged from a commitment and interest in art and politics, the role of the artist as a social agent, and the dialogue that art fosters in the public space. Since 2017, they have carried out CASACUNA, an artistic residency program in collaboration with the community of children and women caregivers at the children's shelter Casa Cuna la Paz. Among the residents and collaborators are Pedro Reyes, Abraham Cruzvillegas, Galia Eibenschutz, Manuela de Laborde, and Ana Gallardo, among others.

The Grant will be used for a pilot program, replicating CASACUNA. This new residency project will continue to deepen the work carried out and reinforce the objective and importance of the consistency and long-term duration of social interaction art. It will reinforce the mission of generating spaces for mutual learning between artists and communities in vulnerable situations.
