The Ministry of Culture presents the Cultural Agenda from March 13 to 21. From traveling mola exhibitions to salsa and robotics festivals, the new Cultural Agenda offers free and paid spaces for the healthy recreation of the Panamanian family. With these actions, the Ministry of Culture reaffirms its commitment to decentralizing the artistic offering and strengthening national identity throughout the territory. The week begins on Friday, March 13, with open-air cinema screenings in Casco Viejo at 6:00 p.m. During the weekend of March 14 and 15, the offer diversifies with cookie-making workshops for children in Capira, contemporary dance classes at Espacio Creativo, and the awaited "Arts and Crafts Market" at the Plaza de la Independencia. In addition, large-scale events such as the "Fan Fest Vive La Salsa" in Amador and the "Musicalion Interestelar" festival in the province of Veraguas will be held. Promotion of the arts and historical heritage Within the Cultural Agenda, exhibitions hold a privileged place. The itinerant exhibition "Mola Viva" at Albrook Mall stands out, available until May 2, and the photographic exhibition "Entre la vida y la extinción" at the Biomuseo. In turn, the Museum of Freedom in Amador keeps the exhibition on Anne Frank open until June 30. In the literary field, MiCultura maintains the call for the National Literature Meeting open until March 27. Likewise, colloquia on memory and culture have been scheduled at the Museum-House of the National Bank and seminars with a feminist focus at the Spanish Cultural Center – Casa del Soldado. Celebrations and season closures The closing of this Cultural Agenda will coincide with dates of great commemorative relevance. On March 19, a mass will be celebrated in honor of Artisan's Day at the Parish of San Francisco de Paula. On Saturday, March 21, the country will join the celebration of World Poetry Day with a tribute at the Ernesto J. Castillero National Library.
