Our Artists, Writers, and Musicians
We are so proud of the creatives that choose to spend their precious time with us at Lake Chapala for a 360 XQMX residency. As you will read, we are thrilled to welcome writers, musicians and artists from every medium. Our sub-tropical climate, the generous Mexican people, the vibrant culture and time-honored traditions are the magical elements that makes this place so special. Every month our family of artists grows and the individuals you will read about return here time and time again … because it feels like home to them. We are confident you will discover the charms of Mexico while exploring what comes next for you during a residency in Ajijic.
