Museo Nacional del Cacao cultural activities

Overview

The Museo Nacional del Cacao in Guayaquil has engaged in various cultural and educational initiatives to promote local heritage. The museum participated in Comic Con Ecuador, using a dedicated stand to educate attendees on the history of cacao and the ‘pepa de oro’ (golden seed) to connect younger generations with the city’s cultural identity.

Following this, the museum launched a new exhibition on its second floor focused on reinterpreting Ecuadorian ancestralism. Through the works of nine contemporary artists, the exhibition seeks to create a dialogue between the past and present, drawing inspiration from figures such as Enrique Tábara, Luis Molinari, and Araceli Gilbert. The initiative included a lecture titled ‘El arte ancestralista ecuatoriano’ to further explore the connection between historical artistic movements and modern heritage.
