Artist Opportunities in Americas

The Americas span a vast creative geography — from artist-run studios in São Paulo to eco-residencies in the Andes, from cultural centres in Mexico City to remote retreat spaces in Patagonia. The residency landscape is less centralised than Europe, which makes direct connections more valuable.

Artaway connects artists with hosts across Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, and beyond — direct arrangements with no intermediaries. The listings below represent what's currently available through the platform.
