Abstract/Resumo
This paper intends to show the Portuguese municipalities’ commitment, since the first decade of this century, in
cultural facilities of municipal management and how it provided 12 of the 18 district capitals of mainland Portugal
with cultural equipment, but after all we want to know if this effort resulted in a regular, diverse, and innovative
schedule. Investing in urban regeneration, local governments have tried to convert cities’ demographic changes
(strengthening of the most educated and professionally qualified groups) in effective cultural demands that
consolidate the three axes of development competitiveness-innovation-creativity. What the empirical study to the
programming and communication proposals of those equipment shows is that it is not enough to provide cities with
facilities; to escape to a utilitarian conception of culture, there is a whole work to be done so that such equipment be
experienced and felt as new public sphere. Equipment in which proposals go through a fluid bind, constructed
through space and discourse with local community, devoted a diversified and innovative bet full filling
development axis. This paper presents in a systematic way what contributes to this binding on the analyzed
equipment.
