In all its venues –Plaza Loreto, Plaza Carso and Casa Guillermo Tovar de Teresa– Museo Soumaya.Fundación Carlos Slim has a cultural project inspired by the words of its founder Carlos Slim: let’s find a way to make every fundamental right and need accessible to all. We are committed to the development of Mexican human capital and talent. We aim to enrich and share art, world culture and our national history with everyone.
