Centro de Arte La Regenta occupies a remodelled tobacco factory and serves as the regional government’s contemporary art centre. Founded in 1987, it supports artistic production across the islands.

The centre presents painting, photography, design, architecture and installation through exhibitions across its programme. Residencies give artists space to develop projects on site.

Exhibitions range from retrospectives to experimental commissions connected with local artists and the islands’ art scene. Production and presentation share this industrial setting.

The centre runs school workshops, classroom encounters and public mediation projects around contemporary artistic practice. Students can engage with artists and production processes.

A specialised library and documentation centre have supported research and projects since 1995. Its programme combines exhibitions, residencies, project calls and community workshops.

La Regenta functions as an exhibition space, production venue and working laboratory for contemporary art. The building brings artistic activity into a former tobacco factory.
