Sesc Cultural programs and projects bring together entertainment, reflection and participation, from the perspective of building knowledge, values, ways of being, doing and living. Performing arts, visual arts, cinema, literature and music are part of a program that reaches millions of people around the country. Most of the attractions are free and reach places that are not usually part of the traditional cultural circuit, thus democratizing access to quality artistic performances, museums and libraries. Popular festivals in various regions and traveling projects also bring cinema, theater, music and dance performances to local squares and streets, as well as workshops, courses and lectures held in Sesc units.
