IT´S A HEADSPACE

A unique art-focused hub of Hotel El Ganzo, dedicated to showcasing the creativity and transformative experiences offered through our residency programs, community initiatives, and artistic collaborations.

Hotel El Ganzo is a home to artists. Our Artists-In-Residences tattoo the hotel with large scale murals, intervene with unique works in the rooms of the hotel, and engage with our community through talks, exhibitions, and classes.
