Our Story

Who We Are
ARTE Mutuo is a collective of Mexican and international artists and activists that aim to bring the socioeconomic benefits of the international tourism market in Mexico to otherwise excluded communities of the Yucatan Peninsula through urban art and art education, with a focus on sustainability as well as ecological and cultural preservation.

Art, especially public art, has a long history of inspiring, recording, uniting, and creating positive change. Along with nature and cultural sights, art is also one of the most important travel attractions globally, greatly contributing to the world’s number one export earner; international tourism. Combining art’s ability to inspire positive social change and its force to attract visitors from every corner of the planet, we can promote a more practical and sustainable yet equally lucrative form of tourism to the less frequented parts of the peninsula.

Our goal is to utilize art as a means of uniting artists from around the globe, local peoples, student populations, governments, associations and community stakeholders to a common social cause, and to demonstrate the power of social unity and responsible citizenship through art.

Quiénes Somos
ARTE Mutuo es un colectivo de artistas y activistas mexicanos e internacionales, que tienen como objetivo llevar los beneficios socioeconómicos del mercado turístico internacional en México a comunidades excluidas de la península de Yucatán a través del arte urbano y la educación artística, con un enfoque en la sustentabilidad, así como en la ecología y la cultura de la preservación.
