PARQUE CULTURAL CENTRO LECA

Abstract

Through observing the daily life of children and adolescents in the city of Paraguaçu-MG, it was possible to perceive that many of them are idle outside the school environment and often alone. Knowing that it is in this age group that a greater intellectual and affective learning happens, it is seen that it would be a waste of time to leave them at the mercy of the vacant hours. In this context, research was carried out on how a cultural center is conceived, analyzes of the public in question, the area to be implanted, and the children and adolescents of the local community in the Colina São Marcos neighborhood. When observing the results of the researches and the reality of these children and adolescents, it was thought to develop the project of an architectural building denominated Cultural Center for children and youth "Leca", with the intention of welcoming this public, offering activities that could stimulate the creativity, discovering and improving their gifts, as well as seeking to integrate the neighboring communities with the building in question, valuing the socialization and art of the vitality present in this age group.
