MAHANAIM ART&RURAL CENTER opened its doors to the public last march, with the mission to foment spaces, experiences and routes for the arts from and toward the rural. Mahanaim is located in a rural area near Barichara, the so called "most beautiful town in Colombia".  The house has been constructed in the region´s traditional rammed-earth-based architecture (compressed earth), which is an inspiring environment for the arts, together with the farm and magnificient landscape. Our work basically focuses on the promotion of the relation "ART&RURAL", thought rural-artistic residencias, short art-stays, exhibitions, workshops, exchanges, etc.
