Multidisciplinary Artist
Artistic Project Manager
Creative and Organizational Solutions for the Arts, Culture, and Creative Sectors.
I am Claudia Garcia, a multidisciplinary artist and project manager with a proven track record of managing diverse artistic and innovative projects. I blend the creative mindset of an artist with the strategic expertise of a project manager to create impactful and meaningful solutions and experiences for the arts, culture, and creative sectors.
A mix of multidisciplinary skills in one person.
Background
My experience includes the coordination and management of complex projects such as an international tour for a youth orchestra, creating large-scale illustrations and animations for a piano concert in a planetarium dome, and working with Yo-Yo Ma and his team on the Bach Project in Medellín. I also have over 10 years of experience working with social music programs, organizations, and initiatives that aim to enrich communities through art and music.
Before embarking on my freelance journey, I held roles that allowed me to cultivate my skills in project management and artistic vision. Most notably, I was the Coordinator of Education Programs for the Medellín Philharmonic Orchestra and the Coordinator of International Affairs for La Red (Network of Music Schools of Medellín).

Artist Statement
My deepest passion is being a creative person. I thrive on the opportunity to express myself artistically and in creative environments. When I create, I seek to craft narratives that resonate deeply and inspire connections between people. I see my diverse passions as bridges that connect audiences to different art forms in innovative and engaging ways. Through my work, I celebrate curiosity, our connection to the world, and the meaningful relationships I cultivate with people. At the heart of my work is a deep belief in the transformative power of creativity, education, and human connection.
I am a perpetual creator. I am a perpetual beginner. Sometimes, I play. Sometimes, I illustrate. Sometimes, I write. But one constant remains. I always create.
