Presentation

The American Capital of Culture initiative was born in 1997 and is aimed at all the countries of the Americas.

It has three major objectives:

– to be an instrument of Inter-American integration in the cultural sphere,
– to contribute to the peoples of the American continent knowing each other better, respecting its national and regional diversity, as well as highlighting their shared cultural heritage;
– and to promote the cities nominated as the American Capital of Culture in the American hemisphere and in the rest of the world, at the same time as building new bridges of cooperation with the other continents which have established cultural capitals.
