Foundation Montresso - Jardin Rouge is a contemporary art institution set within an olive tree garden near Marrakech that provides working spaces for creators. The site contains multiple artist studios, lounges, libraries, and collaborative areas spread across the grounds.

The institution was founded in 2009 to support contemporary artists from different countries through residencies and collaborative projects. Over time it has hosted numerous artistic initiatives and provided working opportunities for creators across the world.

This place functions as a meeting point where local and visiting artists work together and exchange ideas about their practice. You can walk through the studios and watch creators engaged in their work across different artistic disciplines.
