From September to April, Pocoapoco hosts five-week residencies made up of international and local (Oaxacan) residents who come together to think, work, discuss and collaborate. With a focus on shared practice & dialogue, the residency works to support and connect individuals, ideas and practices, offering space to slow down, reframe and respond.

We welcome artists and non-artists across all fields - from journalism to filmmaking, music to tech, painting to public policy. We consider active observation, conversation and reflection as essential to building new ways of coming together and creating together across locations, disciplines and practices.

The relationships and dialogues that develop during the residency continuously inform our educational programs, exhibitions and additional projects. Through ongoing collaborations, we aim continue to learn from and strengthen the network of artists, cultural and social workers that come together here.

We host a total of eight residents / session, 32 residents per year. Open calls are held twice annually: October (for forthcoming fall residencies) and January (for forthcoming spring residencies)
