Mesa Refuge welcomes a diverse community of writers—both emerging and established—who define and/or offer solutions to the pressing issues of our time. Particularly, it is our priority to support writers, activists and artists whose ideas are “on the edge,” taking on the pressing issues of our time including (but not limited to): nature, environment and climate crisis; economic, racial and gender equity; social justice and restorative justice; immigration; health care access; housing; and more.

We especially want writers of nonfiction books, long-form journalism, audio and documentary film. Occasionally we accept poetry, fiction (Young Adult/Adult Literary), screenwriting and playwriting, photojournalism, personal memoirs (as a vehicle to tell a larger story) and graphic narrative. We tend not to accept academic writing. The potential impact and distribution of your project is also important.

We aim to support a diverse community of writers and welcome applicants that represent a broad spectrum of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, immigration status, religion or ability.

Extermination is constantly knocking on our doors, and it's clear that solidarity is in a crisis. In the face of uncertainty, the world has chosen to undermine, divide and conquer, rather than remember, listen, and empower. To think we can continue our daily lives without being affected is not only irresponsible but impossible. Therefore, envisioning justice could only happen in the anticolonial way; in other words, justice is only possible when seeing with those who suffer violence and injustice.

Over the years, Arquetopia has nurtured a community beyond borders, intersecting the lives and experiences of diverse artists, writers and scholars. It has become a space where resistance, knowledge and ethics continuously intersect with different kinds of artistic practices and experiences. We are committed to imagine a collective present, past, and future where everyone is invited to participate, and our collective well-being is not only considered but necessary.

This is an invitation for all of our alumni from over the last 15 years to connect, share, learn, listen and join us in a free virtual residency. Manifesto is a Virtual Artist Residency Program fully sponsored by Arquetopia Foundation, an opportunity to take action by connecting our artistic practices through collective mentoring sessions, discussions and critical readings.

Deadline for applications is Friday December 1, 2023. To apply, please contact us at intcommunity@arquetopia.org.
