Acción Cultural Española (AC/E) is an agency that orchestrates public support for the promotion of culture, both in Spain and overseas. Its aims include promoting Spain’s rich and plural artistic legacy and fostering the internationalisation of its most contemporary creative and culture sector.

From historical heritage to emerging creation, AC/E strives to give prominence to culture as an essential component of a country’s reality and image, projecting it both within and outside Spain.

Highlighting the main creative and cultural fields – from science to history, and from visual, performing and audio-visual arts to literature, music, architecture and design, among many others – AC/E’s projects underline Spain’s diverse role in global culture, as well as the recent contributions of its newest creators.
