Regional Government promotes presentation of digital project "From Shadow to Carnation - April 25 through the Eyes of Cultural Heritage"
The Regional Secretariat for Education, Culture and Sport, through the Regional Directorate for Culture, in collaboration with the Jerónimo Emiliano de Andrade Secondary School is promoting the presentation of the digital project "From Shadow to Carnation - April 25 through the Eyes of Cultural Heritage "on Wednesday, October 3, at the school library at 1:25 pm. The project is aimed at 10th-grade history students, and similar sessions are planned for later dates in other schools of the archipelago. This initiative includes a mobile phone app and a digital publication available on the Cultura Açores portal. It is a non-formal educational resource and aims to tell the story of the main political events of the 20th century leading up to the April 25 revolution, through a selection of items and documents, not always accessible to the public, which belong to the Cultural Promotion Services (eight museums, one ecomuseum, three libraries and regional archives, and one arts centre). Stemming from the research carried out by these services and made available on public access platforms (CCM - Collective Catalogue of Museums, Koha and Archeevo), this work is also in line with the theme chosen by ICOM - International Council of Museums for 2024, namely "Museums for Education and Research." As the Implantation of the Republic is the first significant date in the narrative recounted in "From Shadow to Carnation - April 25 through the Eyes of Cultural Heritage," this was also the date chosen for the presentation of the project.

On June 5, at 7 pm, the Artes e Letras Publisher will present the book by Maria Brandão "Avenida Marginal, Ficções," 2024, featuring the participation of authors Alexandre Borges, Judite Canha Fernandes, Ana Catarina Ferreira de Almeida, Leonardo Sousa and Teresa Canto Noronha. On June 6, at 6 pm, the Predicado Inclinado publishing house will launch and present the book by Professor Francisco Cota Fagundes "Escrever para (Sobre)Viver." On June 7, at 7 pm, there will be a presentation of the bilingual book "CÓDIGO POSTAL: PARAÍSO - Breve História da Aldeia da Cuada /Postal Code: Paradise A Brief History of Cuada Village" by Luís Filipe Borges and Sara Almeida Santos, published by Letras Lavadas. The book will be presented by Professor Vamberto Freitas. In turn, the book "Cruzeiro Literário" by Ernesto Rodrigues will be presented on the same day, at 7:45 pm, followed by "Leituras Poliédricas" by Teresa Martins Marques at 8:30 pm.

Created in 2014, ‘CulturAçores - Revista de Cultura,’ a magazine published by the Regional Directorate for Culture, celebrates its first decade of existence in 2024, compiling not only the activities promoted by the regional culture department, its cultural facilities and other entities involved but also reflecting, in a collaborative process, on its nature and mission. Over ten years, there were 15 publications, available for purchase or subscription, in print and/or digital format, which are the result of the collective efforts of several authors, mostly from the cultural promotion services of the Regional Directorate for Culture, its technicians, as well as external specialists with diverse backgrounds. On June 15, the eve of the closing of the Book Fair, the Region will host a concert by the new project Sónia Pereira Trio, featuring Sónia Pereira on vocals, Antonella Barletta on piano and Roberto Rosa on trumpet, artists from Terceira Island. From traditional Azorean music to originals and setting poems by various Azorean authors to music, including Carina Fortuna, Catarina Valadão, Paulo Freitas, Hélio Costa, Tânia Ferreira and António Bulcão, they bring soul and emotion to the audience with every note in a journey through jazz and world music. The show will take place in the orange square at 8:30 pm.
