Acción Cultural Española

Acción Cultural Española (AC/E) is a public agency established in 2010 through the merger of the Sociedad Estatal para la Acción Cultural Exterior (SEACEX) and the Sociedad Estatal de Conmemoraciones Culturales (SECC). Its founding ethos is to promote and disseminate Spanish culture both within Spain and internationally, fostering dialogue and exchange across borders. AC/E supports a wide range of cultural expressions—from visual arts and literature to performing arts and heritage—through grants, exhibitions, and collaborative programs. Its core mission is to strengthen the presence of Spanish culture abroad while facilitating international cultural cooperation, often acting as a bridge between Spanish creators and global audiences.
