Foro Piezas is an independent cultural platform based in Lázaro Cárdenas, Michoacán, Mexico. It was founded to foster artistic and cultural development in a region with limited opportunities for creative expression. The organization focuses on promoting and producing art through various initiatives, including theater festivals, film screenings, and artist residencies.
One of its key programs is the Residencia Artística Foro Piezas (RAFP), which invites artists from different disciplines to engage with the local community, creating opportunities for collaboration and cultural exchange. The residency has hosted artists from Mexico and abroad, facilitating the creation of films, theater productions, and other creative projects that often reflect the unique social and cultural context of the region.
Foro Piezas has gained recognition from institutions like the British Council, IMCINE, and the Institute for Creative Exchange, highlighting its importance as a cultural hub not only locally but also on an international scale. The organization aims to bridge the gap between the local community and broader cultural networks, offering a platform for emerging artists to showcase their work and develop their craft.
