The Mexico City Portal is located at the entrance of Chapultepec Park, one of the most iconic spaces in Mexico City.
The Portal is hosted by Centro de Cultura Digital is a museum focused on digital arts, performances, and technologies. The Portal sits next to the Estela de Luz (Stele of Light) monument and attracts a diverse mix of locals as well as tourists from around the globe. The Mexico City Portal is in partnership with TimeOut Mexico, the largest arts, culture and entertainment guide in the country.
Working with the Museum for the United Nations and with support from the Ikea Conversation, we launched the world's largest dialogue on climate through Portals across the world. These Portals connected to one another and to major world leaders at Climate Week, the UN General Assembly and COP27.

Thousands of commuters buzz by it; dozens more see it from the Starbucks line less than 100 feet away. But only a few enter this gold box in the middle of downtown Los Angeles' Grand Park. "That was amazing," Bernadine Harris said as she stepped out of the shipping container covered in gold paint. Moments before, she was speaking live to an Iraqi refugee standing in front of her — on a large video screen.
It amazes me just how universal hip-hop has become. Here in America it was originally created as a means to express ourselves despite the forces oppressing us. Blacks had few ways to convey their thoughts publicly so we confused creativity with passion in hopes that the words in our hearts would be felt. Today I spoke with a man on the other side of the world who said that positive hip-hop is blooming where he lives in Afghanistan. It’s inspirational to say the least. I’m honored to be able to share my voice with the world. This portal is a gift, a treasure in time that I feel will one day be incredibly impacting! Javier S
This is an amazing experience. Really works as art but as cultural diplomacy as well. Bravo!
A terribly important art exhibit that instantly breaks down the arbitrary borders we put between countries.
