Welcome to Matucana 100

Geographically located in an important and industrial area of Santiago, Matucana 100 serves as a space for contemporary art. With both unique architectural and urban features, the Cultural Center supports and exhibits diverse artistic manifestations in the same place: visual arts, music, cinema and performing arts.

Founded in 2001 in what used to be the warehouses of the State Supply General Directorate on Matucana street for decades, our job is to encourage artistic development, deliver high quality experiences and bring creative freedom to artists.

A wide range of emerging and established artists come together in the Cultural Center’ physical and digital stages to reflect, through their own work, different issues regarding our society. Civil society and the different worlds of the cultural field meet, connect and become present inside this national referent with over twenty years of history.

Matucana 100 creates a unique place for contemporary art in Chile.

Our History

The Matucana 100 Cultural Corporation was founded in 2001 to manage a Cultural Center established in the former warehouses of the State Supply General Directorate. From the outset, M100 was conceived as a public space where visual arts exhibitions, theater, dance, cinema, and music would take place simultaneously.

Matucana 100 has developed successive and different areas, allowing it to expand its infrastructure and build loyalty among its audiences. This has enabled it to host a broad and diverse range of programming in its spaces: Teatro Principal, Explanada, Espacio Patricio Bunster, Galería Principal, Galería Concreta, Huerta M100, Cine M100 and Microsala.

Today, Matucana 100 is one of the oldest and most prolific Cultural Centers in Santiago, offering a vast array of events in Dance, Circus, Theater, Music, Visual Arts, Cinema, and Education.
