Fundación Valparaíso supports the creation of art and research in the fine arts, literature, and music, with a clear emphasis on helping individual artists, writers, and researchers through residencies, awards, seminars, exhibitions, and financial support. Its most visible giving is highly programmatic and artist-centered: an annual poetry prize for unpublished Spanish-language work and year-round artist residencies in Mojácar that provide time, space, and studio access for professional creators from around the world. The foundation appears especially interested in original literary work and multidisciplinary artistic practice, rather than large institutional grants.
Small, program-specific awards and in-kind residencies; annual poetry competition with a fixed €3,000 prize plus publication, and open-year-round residency applications for 14- or 28-day stays in Mojácar. Support is selective and likely focused on individual creators rather than organizations.
For the poetry prize, watch the annual convocatoria closely and submit unpublished poetry manuscripts in Spanish before the posted deadline; for residencies, apply directly through the foundation’s residency process, as applications are reviewed year-round and selection is based on artistic merit and fit with the program.
