Welcome at the Instituto Buena Bista (IBB) website; the Curaçao Center for Contemporary Art that started in september 2006.
The IBB offers an orientation course for young talents whom we – as a team – select through scouting and then guide and support towards a future in the creative field.

This website tries to give you a complete view of our program but please do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions: info@institutobuenabista.com
