The Training Program “Linha de Encontro”, by Évora_27 in partnership with CIMAC, starts a new cycle, with thematic sessions aimed at the artistic and cultural sector of Alentejo.

The program is aimed at cultural agents based in Alentejo — artists, cultural organizations, technicians, and other professionals in the sector — promoting their cohesion and collaboration.

Depending on the number of available spots in each session, the type of training (theoretical, practical, workshop), and the capacity of each venue, priority will be given to cultural agents based in Central Alentejo, CIMAC’s area of operation. Participants from other sub-regions will be granted access on a first-come, first-served basis and up to the venue’s capacity / participation limit set by the trainers / type of training.

This cycle of sessions aims to strengthen and develop capacities in the cultural sector, helping it become better prepared to respond to societal and environmental challenges, more cohesive, better informed, technically more skilled, and truly inclusive.

The initiative specifically aims to contribute to the implementation of projects selected through Évora_27’s open call “A Nossa Vez”, whose results will be announced in March 2026, as well as to the development of new cultural projects, within Évora_27 or other national and European programs.

The thematic sessions of “Linha de Encontro” take place between March and December, lasting half a day or a full day, rotating among several municipalities.

Participation is free, upon registration.
A participation certificate will be issued for each session.
The registration form for each session will be made available soon.
