Tulum Art Club proudly carries the legacy of Residencia Gorila, the pioneering artist residency in Tulum and Quintana Roo, founded in 2011. What began as a small film studio quickly became a vibrant hub for artists, muralists, musicians, filmmakers, and creatives from around the world.
In just four years, we helped bring over 50 murals to life across Yucatán, rooted in the ethos of crear, crecer, compartir(create, grow, share). Residencia Gorila wasn’t just a residency — it was a full creative ecosystem, blending art, nature, and community.
In 2016, we evolved into Tulum Art Club, expanding our reach while staying true to our original mission: to build spaces for expression, collaboration, and cultural transformation. Today, we continue to support artists through residencies, curatorial projects, and meaningful partnerships that position Tulum as a global destination for contemporary art.
