​​
Founded in Havana in 2015, El Oficio began as a digital magazine dedicated to literature and art, with the mission of supporting and promoting independent cultural initiatives.
​
The multidisciplinary event Utopía-Habana was created for Les Festes de La Mercè 2021, where Havana was the guest city. Held in Barcelona from September 23–26, the event showcased contemporary Cuban creativity—from cinema and music to dance and visual arts. El Oficio was invited as a Cuban publication focused at the time on contemporary visual arts with an international perspective.
