The Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation integrates the values of inclusion, sustainability, and institutional ethics into both its cultural activities and internal management. This commitment permeates the way its spaces are conceived, the way it interacts with visitors, and the way the human team that brings the Foundation to life is built.
Diversity and inclusion
Art is a universal language, capable of connecting diverse sensibilities. The Foundation aims for this spirit of dialogue and openness to be reflected in all its actions.
- We promote an environment where everyone is welcome, fostering cultural, gender, generational, and functional diversity.
- Accessibility criteria are applied in communication, museography, and educational programming.
- We promote inclusive programs that guarantee a shared and equitable cultural experience.
- We foster an organizational culture based on respect, equal opportunities, and appreciation of differences.
We are part of the Apropa Cultura network, which facilitates access to art and culture for people in vulnerable situations. Through reduced-price tickets, training, and community activities, we contribute to making culture more accessible and inclusive for all.
Sustainability and environmental responsibility
The preservation of Salvador Dalí’s legacy is only possible if it is carried out with a responsible approach to the planet and future generations. For this reason, the Foundation works to integrate sustainability as a cross-cutting theme in the management of spaces, processes, and projects.
Specific actions are promoted to reduce the environmental impact of the activity and contribute to a more environmentally friendly culture:
Energy optimization: efficient air conditioning, lighting, and consumption control systems are implemented in museums and buildings.
Responsible waste management: the reduction of single-use plastics is encouraged, and the recycling and reuse of materials is promoted.
Sustainability in conservation: environmental criteria are incorporated into works and restorations, using ecological materials and minimal intervention techniques that respect the balance between heritage and the environment.
Active collaboration: Participation in local and international initiatives to raise environmental awareness, sharing good practices, and promoting alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the cultural sector.
This commitment is part of our understanding of art as a living legacy that engages with the present and builds the future.
Social commitment and educational action
The Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation understands culture as a tool for transformation and social cohesion. Therefore, it embraces its public dimension as an institution rooted in the region and open to the community, with actions that promote universal access to art and knowledge.
This commitment is realized through various social responsibility programs and initiatives:
- Educa Dalí: an educational program that promotes artistic mediation and facilitates access to Salvador Dalí’s work in public schools, special education centers, and social organizations.
- Collaboration with the local community: networking with community centers, social services, and cultural and educational associations to bring Dalí’s legacy to new audiences.
- Economic and social accessibility: free or reduced-price visits for people in vulnerable situations, low-income families, and priority groups.
- Support for impactful projects: promoting cultural and educational initiatives with transformative value, especially in the areas of inclusion, accessibility, and artistic participation.
