ESCUELA DEL AGUA Y LA TIERRA
An interdisciplinary pedagogical laboratory whose first edition took place in June and July 2025 in Mompox. The School of Water and Land brings together creative experiences in the arts, design, architecture, and ancestral knowledge to explore the relationship between creativity and ecosystems in the Colombian Caribbean and Andes. Organized by Universidad del Rosario, with sponsorship from reArc, the school offered a two-week immersion, an introductory virtual seminar, hands-on workshops with an emphasis on ceramics and wood carving, and spatial interventions in the amphibious landscape of Mompox.
SN GALLERY SCHOLARSHIP
The SN Gallery's annual grant for artists aims to provide a space in Mompox for artistic study, research, and creation. Its first edition was held in 2025 with the artist Ernesto Soto.
ARTECAMARA ARTBO SCHOLARSHIP

The residency takes place the year following the reception of the award. Recipients of the ArtBo–El Boga grant have been Marcela Calderón (2024) and Vanessa Nieto (2025).

RESIDENCIA DE PENSAMIENTO
HISTORIOGRÁFICO AFRO
The aim of this residency, sponsored by the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation ( AECID ), is to encourage and support research into the Afro-Caribbean influence on the history and culture of the Caribbean region, particularly in the towns along the Magdalena River. Brazilian researcher Luiza Sacramento will be joining us in January and February 2026.
ARCHAEOLOGICAL PROJECT
UNIVERSIDAD DE LOS ANDES Y UNIVERSIDAD DE ZURICH
This project investigates a communal courtyard on a private lot in the heart of the historic district of Mompox, Colombia. The archaeological site is a rarity in Latin America, as most common areas of urban courtyards from the Spanish colonial period were subdivided and rebuilt. The findings are interpreted within the context of historical and ethnographic data. The historical research is based on archival studies in Seville, Spain, and Bogotá, Colombia. The ethnographic analysis investigates social practices related to the use of community water resources in the area surrounding Mompox.
MANDATORY COMMUNITY SERVICE MOMPOX
This program is aimed at 10th and 11th grade students who require completing a mandatory community service to graduate from high school. It consists of a week-long program with peers from Mompox doing social, environmental and cultural activities. This fosters dialogue and exchange among young people. Students from schools in Bogotá (Helvetia, Newman, Fontan, and Campoalegre) and two schools in Mompox (Instituto Normal Superior de Mompo and Colegio Santa Cruz) have participated.
