The encounter between the Minister of Culture and the heads of 40 social initiatives in Havana is one of the actions of the dialogue convened by the National Council of Culture Houses for the debate and evaluation of the artistic spaces transformed in the neighborhoods.

From the Provincial Center of Plastic Arts and Design, participants analyzed sustainability as a way of acting, the contribution of integrated community work for the areas’ development, the role of the cultural promoter and the link between regional proposals and institutions.

Previously, on August 24, Alonso visited the headquarters of the sociocultural Cabildo Quisicuaba project from where the minister said, ‘here you can see the strength and richness of our culture (…) it is admirable the work they do so attached to the community and attentive to the needs of the humble.

On Facebook, the members of Quisicuaba expressed their agreement and pride with the arrival of the officials and recognized how Cuban culture is a mixture of Latin American and world identities.
