Asociación Jupiterfab is an independent oganization which was created in November 2014 to support art projects and artists working on projects with social impact. During the residency, they offer artists the opportunity to live and work in Downtown Guadalajara, Colonia Americana (Mexico). The residency can host up to 5 artists.

The organisers encourage artists to work on projects related to the area and the community around the residency and/or social topics, such as gentrification, equality, immigration, social justice, poverty, homeless people… Nevertheless, this is not a binding criteria as long as your project is solid.

At the end of their stay, the artists will have the chance to have a final exhibit/event in their space.

This is a small and independent residency but they try to support artists as best as they can, mainly in logistics, and in the communication of their final event. Lately, they are creating alliances with several local art organizations and organizing events in their spaces as well, such as artists' presentations.

Guadalajara is the second biggest city in Mexico (8 millions people) but it still feels like a big town. It has a great climate (mild-hot during the day – cool and fresh at night) and it is surrounded by beautiful places to visit.

The residency is surrounded by a vibrant community, full of artists and craftsmen, close to galleries, historic buildings as much as bars and restaurants. Everything is within walking distance.
