Maceió, March 5, 2026 - The list of the 104 projects selected through the Cultura em Movimento Call for Proposals will be announced this Friday (6) on the official competition website: www.editalculturaemmovimento.com.br . The call supports expressions of Popular and Afro-Brazilian Culture, such as Guerreiro, Pastoril, Bumba Meu Boi, Maracatu, Capoeira, and Afoxé. Selected projects will receive grants ranging from BRL 15,250.00 to BRL 30,800.00, depending on the category of the submission.

Each participant was allowed to apply in up to two categories but could only be selected in one.
