RESIDENCY PROGRAM — SINCE 2013

About the Residency Program

About the Residency Program

Founded in 2013, the residency program is the heart of LNF. We welcome emerging and established artists, curators, and cultural practitioners from Guatemala and around the world.

Each year, LNF selects five residents through our international open call.

THE RESIDENCY IS

  • Research-based, not production-driven — there are no requirements to produce a final work.
  • Open to all career stages and artistic mediums.
  • A space to reflect, research, share, and connect across practices and communities.
  • Designed to foster exchange with our local context—residents are encouraged to participate in LNF’s public programs, open studios, and community events.

The call for applications for La Nueva Fábrica's 2027-2028 residency cycle is now open!

Application deadline: October 18, 2026, at 6:00 PM (Guatemala time).
