The Municipal Library of Lagos Júlio Dantas will mark its 30th anniversary with a diversified cultural program for all age groups. Theatre, music, oral narration, literary meetings, book presentations, workshops and lectures, many will be the initiatives promoted by the Library throughout the months of October, November and December, both in the county’s schools and with the general public.
Inaugurated on November 1, 1991, over 30 years of existence, this cultural facility has played a fundamental role in the dissemination of information and culture in Lagos, ensuring access to them. Its presence in the community has also been marked by the dynamism of the initiatives it promotes around books and reading, among other forms of culture and art, collaborating with other entities such as schools, libraries, cultural and recreational associations and individuals.
His birthday is usually celebrated during the month of November, within the scope of the initiative “Palavras Mágicas – Encontro de contos e de artes da palavra” (“Magic Words – Encounter of tales and the arts of the word”). However, given the important milestone of three decades of existence, it will extend its cultural program to the months of October, November and December with dozens of cultural initiatives that cover the various schools in the county, the senior public and the population in general. The celebration of his birthday “jumps” from literature itself, also featuring music, dance, lectures and workshops, a way of dignifying a space that belongs to the entire community, used to this type of interaction with the various audiences.
All events referring to the 30th anniversary of the Municipal Library of Lagos will be free to access, but, given the capacity of the spaces, registration is mandatory.
