Founded by one of Cuba’s favorite rock fusion musicians, X Alfonso, the Fábrica de Arte Cubano (F.A.C.) is on its way to become one of Havana’s central contemporary art institutions. The huge former-factory “El Cocinero” has been restored not only to host events for established festivals, such as the International Festival of New Latin American Cinema, but also to promote a new wave of Cuban artists, intellectuals, filmmakers, writers, photographers and performers. Be sure to check out an exposition and stay for a late-night party.
