# CRUCE Residency

**Hosted by:** AADK Spain

**Type:** Residency | **Location:** Blanca, Spain | **Deadline:** June 1, 2026

## About This Program

AADK Cruce started at the end of 2020 and since then has hosted more than 70 national and international creators. It received artists from various disciplines, as well as participants working outside the field of the arts. This has created temporary communities, sharing time and space with the participants of our Research Residency Programme and the population of the Valley.

In this new phase we are committed to making our resources and infrastructure available to people looking for decentralized places to work remotely.

Cruce encourages independence and seeks to preserve cultural diversity and pluralism. Our platform works as a temporary community, an ecosystem of actors able to work in a remote place like the Ricote Valley, creating a sustainable circular economy with the inhabitants of Blanca. We promote innovative living models and alternative ways of thinking.

Surrounded by nature, the rural setting of Blanca allows you to experience the traditions and customs of a village in the south of Spain. We want to focus on artists, thinkers, digital nomads and entrepreneurs. Our programme offers accommodation, studios, coworking areas and event spaces.

We operate with packages of stays from 2 weeks to 6 months as well as logistics, organization and communication.
