MEXICO CITY
PERSONALIZED WEEKEND

BOOK A CALL

Immerse yourself in a transformative 2-day songwriting retreat at Jardín Prim in Proyectos Públicos, where Mexico City's rich cultural history collides with its vibrant contemporary art scene.

ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE

This magnificently preserved 1905 Porfirian mansion now hosts Salón ACME during Art Week and serves as a cutting-edge creative hub. With guidance from award-winning artist Alarke, you'll create and professionally record an original song while staying overnight in this architectural gem where historical grandeur meets modern artistic innovation.

Enjoy meditation sessions, personalized creative coaching, and meals at the on-site Taverna restaurant. Leave with a demo recording, renewed creative direction, and an unforgettable experience at the intersection of Mexico's storied past and its dynamic artistic future.

BOOK A CALL

Most activities—from songwriting to recording, meditation, and overnight stay—occur within this creative complex, while you'll have opportunities to explore the surrounding neighborhood for some meals and during your free time, providing both a seamless creative experience and a taste of Mexico City's vibrant culture.

CITY

MEXICO

Today, this same building stands at the forefront of Mexico City's arts renaissance—hosting Salón ACME during Art Week, electronic music festivals, fashion events, and housing numerous creative workshops. Alberto Kalach's contemporary greenhouse on the roof creates a striking dialogue between historical and modern architecture, while the building's thoughtful restoration emphasizes what locals call "the poetics of ruin"—preserving layers of history rather than erasing them.

RENAISSANCE

ARTS

Your experience takes place primarily within Proyecto Público Prim, one of Mexico City's most spectacular venues where historical preservation meets contemporary artistic expression. This architectural gem in Colonia Juárez was built in 1905 by engineer Alberto Robles Gil during the Porfiriato era, featuring magnificent details like majestic staircases and generous courtyards that have witnessed over a century of Mexico's cultural evolution.
