Juannio 2024 is the 60th edition of the art contest, exhibition and auction that has been held since 1964 to benefit the Neurological Institute of Guatemala.

This year more than 35 artists will participate, most of them Guatemalan. Below we share the complete list and other details of the exhibition.
Juannio 2024, an edition that celebrates 60 years of history
Juannio, one of the most prominent artistic events in Guatemala and Central America, is preparing to celebrate its 60th anniversary with an extraordinary edition that promises to delight art lovers and, at the same time, contribute to a noble cause.

For the special edition of Juannio 2024, a renowned judging jury was convened to select the works that will be part of this artistic celebration.
Heading the jury is writer and curator Marivi Véliz, whose experience in the art world provides a unique perspective. Together with her, the photographer and cultural activist Andrés Asturias, as well as the independent manager Andrés Cordón de la Fuente, complete a panel of experts committed to quality and artistic innovation.

In addition to the works selected through the competition, Juannio 2024 will also feature the participation of prominent masters and established artists, whose names will be revealed later. This added touch promises a rich and diverse artistic experience that will encompass different styles, perspectives and creative paths.
