About the Open Call

Delfina Foundation, in partnership with El Espacio 23 / Jorge M. Pérez Collection, is launching an initiative to create four fully funded residencies over two years. This open call will select two artists for 12-week residencies in Autumn 2026 and Winter 2027. The program focuses on artists from Latin American and Caribbean countries that have been underrepresented in recent programs, specifically excluding Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Brazil, and Argentina for this cycle. However, Latin American and Caribbean artists living anywhere in the United States are eligible. The residency is generously supported by Jorge M. and Darlene Pérez.

Requirements

Open to artists based in Latin America and the Caribbean or related diasporic communities in the United States. Artists currently living in Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Brazil, and Argentina are not eligible for this specific call.
