Secretaría de Cultura Ciudadana

The Secretaría de Cultura Ciudadana is a pioneering municipal office in Medellín that has been shaping the city's cultural transformation since 2002. It manages a network of cultural centers, sound labs, and theaters, offering democratic grants for artists and programs that support youth and local communities. It is at the heart of the 'Medellín es como Vos' strategy, which celebrates civic attitudes and builds trust through art. It is a place where culture becomes a tool for social inclusion and educational revolution in a city that has gone from violence to becoming a global icon of cultural innovation.
