Event History
Over the last years, we welcomed more than 45 artists from 14 different countries.
What Makes this event different?
We are the only practically year round artist residency in Lanzarote, with 350 days of artist residencies on our calendar for 2026. Situated on a regenerative farm and guest house, with different residency opportunities (one artist, artistic couples or friends, periods with only artists at the farm), the quietness of our land and house, as well as the rhythm of it creates opportunities for artistic development.

Artist & Activist Residencies at Hektor, Lanzarote
At Hektor, our artist and activist residencies focus on projects that align with our values, our land, and our ongoing work—without limitations on form or expression. Residents are welcome to create, research, wander, and take the time they need to reconnect with their practice.
We invite everyone to share ideas on art, activism, and the power of creativity to make a difference. We believe deeply that art can drive positive change toward a more beautiful, thoughtful world.
Community matters to us. We see connection—with people, animals, and the environment—as essential to growth and inspiration. Alongside fellow residents, you’ll be welcomed by our lively rescue animals, from pigs to a donkey, who are very much part of the Hektor rhythm.
Artists stay in one of our guesthouse suites (30–40 m²), each with its own bathroom and small kitchen. A shared workshop is also available for use.
Residency fees start at €650. This is a rolling call; applications are reviewed in the order they are received.
