Art galleries in Havana
Havana, La Habana has 53 art galleries on the map. That's 53 galleries mapped around Havana.

Names you'll run into include Galería Habana and Galería de Arte Forna, plus Galería Sala de la Diversidad. If a gallery's missing from Havana's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet.

Gallery tips for Havana
A few things worth knowing before you work through Havana's art galleries:
- Small galleries take risks at Galería Habana. Artist-run spaces show the work the big institutions won't. Some of it's baffling; some of it's the future.
- Photography rules vary at Galería de Arte Forna. Some galleries welcome photos, others forbid them. Look for the sign at the door rather than guessing.
- Read the wall text. It's short and it's there to help. Even the cryptic ones give you a way into the work.
- Don't skip the project room. The small back room often holds the most interesting work — emerging artists, experiments, one-night installations.
Good to know
We searched about 40 km around Havana — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new art gallery in Havana can take a while to appear. If you spot one of the 53 that's closed, or a great art gallery we missed, the fix is to update the map itself — that's where this guide reads from.
We don't review exhibitions — shows change too fast. What we list is the where: real galleries, verified by real mappers.
If you run one of the 53 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
Art gallery listings for Havana: 53 mapped from OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL). Photos from Wikimedia Commons contributors; individual photo credits appear in captions. Listing data was last refreshed automatically — verify hours before visiting.
