Location

The Poceirão Cultural Centre is located in the town of Poceirão, part of the municipality of Palmela. Situated on one of its central streets, this venue is a point of reference for the town's inhabitants and visitors, marking its presence in the local community through its architecture and activities.

A Dynamic Cultural Hub

Inaugurated in April 2000, the Poceirão Cultural Centre was designed to play a fundamental role in decentralizing the municipality's cultural activity. More than just a building, it is a true beating heart for the town's associative and community life. The centre is home to local associations, such as the Poceirão Folkloric Ranch and the Poceirão Culture and Sports Association, which enrich the cultural calendar with their regular initiatives, highlighting the venue's commitment to promoting local talent and tradition.

A Diverse Program

This cultural facility can host a wide range of artistic manifestations. Its facilities are designed to accommodate music, theatre, and dance performances, providing a stage for artists and groups. In addition, the centre offers suitable spaces for smaller exhibitions, allowing for the display of various visual works. Commemorative and cultural events, such as Serenade Nights, São Martinho celebrations, Theatre Month, and Dance Week, are examples of its diverse program.

Space for Innovation and Creation

With the recent introduction of a Maker Space, the Poceirão Cultural Centre also establishes itself as a hub of creativity and innovation. This collaborative workspace invites experimentation and the development of new skills through practical projects that can involve both manual tools and technological equipment. By integrating into the Palmela Municipality Public Libraries Network as the Poceirão Hub, this collaborative space reinforces its role as a place of learning and sharing for all ages, contributing to a more skilled and inspired community.
