About Centro Cultural Tijuana
The Centro Cultural Tijuana, CECUT, opened in 1982 in Zona Río. The concrete spherical dome, called La Bola, houses a curved-screen cinema and has become one of the city's symbols.
The Museum of the Californias inside the center tells the story of the Baja California peninsula, from ancient peoples and rock paintings to the missions, the making of the border and Tijuana's growth.
The complex also includes art exhibition rooms, a theater, a small botanical garden and an aquarium. Programming includes concerts, theater and film.
