PASSION FOR ART GALLERIES: ARTIS 718
ARTIS 718 is the name of the art gallery located at the popular corner of 7th and 18th Streets in Miramar, Havana. It was formally opened on September 2014 by the Cuban Fund of Cultural Goods in order to foster the artistic creation in the country. It has bolstered the commercialization of the art made by our visual artists both nationally and internationally.
