The Regional Culture Directorate will move to a ground-floor space on Rua das Pretas in Funchal to solve overcrowding issues.
The Regional Government has authorized the signing of a lease contract for a new space to house the services of the Regional Culture Directorate (DRC). The measure aims to solve overcrowding problems in the current workplaces, which are compromising the management of the institution's editorial collection.
The decision was formalized by Regional Government Council Resolution No. 874/2026, which authorizes the lease of an independent unit in Funchal. The main points of the decision are:
The expense for the lease in 2026 is already included in the regional budget.
The Government has approved a supplementary financial aid of up to 400 euros per embroiderer, with a total maximum amount of 240,000 euros, to cover the purchase of work materials and equipment.
The Regional Government has approved two cultural funding agreements: a commemorative exhibition marking 350 years of the Camacha parish and the NOMADIS Dance project, each with a maximum contribution of 5,000 euros.
The Regional Government Council approved five public commendations for Madeiran athletes and the sports organisations they represent, following outstanding results in badminton, canoeing and figure skating competitions.
