Description: "The IDB Cultural Center was created in 1992 to advance the concept of culture as an integral component of development. The Center has two primary objectives: (1) contribute to social development by administering a grants program for small-scale cultural projects in the Region with positive social impact, and (2) promote a better image of the IDB member countries, with emphasis on Latin America and the Caribbean, through their cultural expressions.

The IDB Cultural Center Exhibitions and the Inter-American Concert, Lecture and Film Series stimulate dialogue and a greater knowledge of the culture of the Americas. The Cultural Development Program funds projects in the fields of youth development, institutional support, restoration, and preservation of cultural traditions. The IDB Art Collection, gathered over several decades, is managed by the Cultural Center and showcases the outstanding artistic achievements of the IDB member countries."
