The House of Culture of Canaã dos Carajás was inaugurated in 2004, in the municipality that lends its name, in southeastern Pará.

It was thought of as a meeting place, a space for free thinking and creating. It congregates exhibition spaces, auditorium, music and ballet rooms, patio for workshops, reading room with more than 5,000 literary works, as well as an external area for events. All of its spaces invite visitors to socialize, share and learn together.

The cultural space, created and maintained by Vale and which now integrates the Vale Cultural Institute, plays a role in guarding and registering the city’s historical collection, and as a cultural diffuser in the region.
