Welcome to Madrid

The former Embajadores Tobacco Factory is home to this self-managed  social centre, a place where theatre, music, dance, painting, conferences, meetings, workshops, audiovisual presentations, neighbourhood interventions and any type of cultural activity is scheduled, all with the common dominator of being joint, public and related to social transformation.

The Centre is open for the direct participation of all citizens. Any individual or group of people can request the use of a space to carry out a non-profit project, provided that they get involved in the maintenance and work with a solidarity spirit.

The CSA La Tabacalera is located alongside Tabacalera Art Promotion, a cultural space managed by the Ministry for Sport and Culture’s Sub-Directorate General for the Promotion of Fine Arts, which develops a permanent programme of temporary exhibitions and activities around photography, contemporary art and the visual arts.
