The Ministry of Culture and the Usina del Arte Cultural Center in particular propose children's content and cultural experiences for boys, girls and families. In each instance, the program seeks to listen to the population segment and study their preferences and needs in order to draw up cultural proposals that value the game as a learning tool, exploring interests and generating new experiences.
Based on a qualitative and quantitative diagnosis and analysis, different age groups were defined to work on specific cultural proposals and initiatives that respond to their interests, preferences, needs, both for children and parents or adults in charge. The segments are:
Infants and toddlers;
Children aged 4 to 7;
Children aged 8 to 12.
Some of the milestones in this plan are the "Iupiiiii" (Yipee) space, the first exclusive cultural space for infants and toddlers in the city; "La Nochecita" (Little Evening) (2019), which was the great museum night for children; "Vamos a las Plazas" (Let's go to the park), a program which is organized every summer; and the Winter Holiday program. Each milestone reflects the coordinated participation of the various public spaces and cultural events (festivals, museums, libraries, theaters, among others), along with private players (artists for children, youth cultural centers, foundations).
90,000 people attended the children's festival "La Nochecita" and 120,000 people attended the winter holiday activities in 2019.
