Neoenergia Institute has been
supporting initiatives focused in the support to creative economy
during COVID-19
pandemic - especially with actions aimed to strengthen regional
culture and economy initiatives. As a highlight, among other actions,
is the support given to the public notice open up to May 3 by “Som
Sem Plugs” (Unplugged Sound), one of the 18 projects sponsored by
both institutions though Transformando Energia em Cultura
(Transforming Energy into Culture) public notice and Câmara Cascudo
Culture Incentive Law.
The
project will contribute to the professionalization of all artists and
musicians from the state participating in the public notice, in a
partnership with Sebrae-RN, and will select five artists in the State
for web performances, with payment of fees, technical consultancy and
exclusive awards, in addition to supporting other five artists from
the State, who will also be paid.
For
Renata Chagas, Neoenergia Institute Officer, art is something highly
important in this special moment faced by all of us. “We are
contributing with a project that supports actions targeted to
creative economy during the pandemic, to strengthen regional culture
and economy. We are building together a way to stay together,
expand knowledge and enable transformations”, says Renata. “I
emphasize that the actions supported by us can be followed by any
music lover, from any part of Brazil or the world - both the “lives”
performed by the selected artists and the popular vote for choosing
the artists”, she concludes.
