Welcome to Camino Artist Residency!

THE MUSE IS CALLING – ARTIST RESIDENCY 2022

Dears!

We are happy to invite you to Camino Art House to create.

We are located in Vega de San Mateo (Gran Canaria, Spain) Our building is the first in the town (let’s say the edge of the town), and luckily we have an amazing valley just at our entrance.

This year we start the residency program from the beginning of May. You are very welcome to arrive until mid-November any time for a 10-30 days creative holiday.

If you are an artist who is looking for a quiet place, or inspiration to make art, or one who needs time and tranquility to finish a project, please consider to spend some time at our place.

What you will get:

Accommodation Best option is book for a month, although we also have 3 weeks and 2 weeks options as well. We offer private rooms with shared bathroom. These rooms fit for two people (double bed). Amazing food Our lovely volunteers are responsible for breakfast and dinner, they will cook for you and serve the food. Support for your art making: like few types of paints, paper for drawing, painting, brushes, pencils, chalks, pastel, lots of natural pieces, like stones, shells, wood, or whatever we find and good to use/upcycle. We also want to offer you space to get inspired and create.

What you give:

Your talent to create art. Your inspiring vibes at our art house. Donation that helps us to function (it is going to be half price of our regular prices). 

How?

Apply with cv, portfolio, motivation, project description to camino at caminoart.org. After accepting your application we will help you through the booking process. We will discuss individually how we could work together, what are your needs, what we can offer personally for you. Depending on your project(s) you will need different space, tools, time so we need to see how is it possible to have the best options for all of us.

When?

The Camino Artist Residency ’22 is available from 1st May 2022 until 15th November 2022.

Where?

At Camino Art House – Vega de San Mateo, Gran Canaria.

Please feel free to share this information with all of your friends and family members who might be interested to spend a few weeks on Gran Canaria and create.

Dinner and Theatre – an extraordinary evening

10th March and 16th March, 2022. 7pm


Sharing a delicious meal and the experience of an extraordinary theatre show are two things that many of us consider as joy and unique moment in life. Why not combine the two? On this evenings you will enjoy a family dinner with people you meet at the first time, but for sure you have something in common: enjoying food and theatre in life.

We are happy to host a very special theatre group at Camino Art House in March. Václav Wortner has spent many weeks and held theatre improvisation workshops at Camino Art House in 2021. This time he returns with his group called “Us Boys Who Go Out Together”.

ABOUT “US BOYS”

What happens when a Moravian actor, Australian circus performer, Slovakian mime, and Czech polyglot improv wizzkid meet? The boys who go out together are a mix of actors and performers with various backgrounds, ranging from classical drama theatre, dance, circus, and physical theatre. They met during free-form improv classes at the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague and have been performing ever since. With the main purpose of exploring essentially total and utter free theatre improvisation without any structures ahead given, they concentrate on physicality and movement as their main form of expression. They search and keep learning our own language, consisting of dark Czech humor, movement improv, and an exquisitely bad taste in folklore singing.

Dinner and Theatre

We are inviting you to a special event, the first in history of Camino Art House. We are honoured to host the Improvisation Theatre group who are going to entertain us with their charming characters. But before the show, we all will sit around the table and have a special meal. The cook for these nights is Bea, founder of Camino Art House, who is preparing a special vegan meal for all the participants. The menu (and the show as well) will be different on each night, so if you liked the first one, there is always a chance to repeat 🙂

Places are limited, so please book yours in advance. Dinner starts at 7pm, please arrive 15 minutes earlier.

Entrance fee (includes the dinner and the theatre show): 30€
