Centro Nacional de las Artes, Cultural institution in Coyoacán, Mexico.

Centro Nacional de las Artes occupies a site between Calzada de Tlalpan and Avenida Miramontes in Colonia Country Club, Coyoacán. Its buildings were designed by Ricardo Legorreta, Teodoro González de León, Enrique Norten, Javier Sordo Madaleno and others. A research tower holds the theatre, dance, music and visual arts research centres, while the schools for those disciplines plus film occupy the rest of the grounds. The main venue is the Teatro de las Artes, seating 606.

The institution opened in November 1994 as a centralized hub for artistic training and cultural activity in Mexico City. It was established to bring together different artistic disciplines under one complex, providing dedicated spaces for each art form to develop and flourish.

The complex takes its name from the National Council for Culture and the Arts, CONACULTA, which founded it in 1994; it now belongs to the Secretaría de Cultura. Its Centro Multimedia runs six laboratories and a residency programme for electronic arts, and hosts the Transitio_MX festival of electronic arts and video.

The complex is accessible by public transportation, particularly the metro station General Anaya which is a short walk away from the main entrance. It's best to check event schedules in advance, as different theaters and galleries have their own programming and some spaces may not be accessible without a ticket to a show or exhibition.

The Aula Magna José Vasconcelos, a 130-seat hall by Ricardo Legorreta, has a facade of glazed tiles designed by visual artist Vicente Rojo. The Auditorio Blas Galindo, by Teodoro González de León, is finished in hammered white concrete with inclined walls and holds 693 spectators.
