The Ministerio de Cultura y Deportes de Guatemala announced a series of cultural initiatives and events through its official Twitter account. The posts highlight both an upcoming museum event in the capital and the expansion of cultural centers across the country.
On November 7, 2025, the Ministry promoted a special event at the National Museum of History. According to their tweet from that day, " Noche de los Museos en el Museo Nacional de Historia
Vive una noche especial en uno de los espacios más emblemáticos del país, donde la historia cobra vida a través del arte, la música y las leyendas que nos conectan con nuestras raíces.
#ElPuebloDignoEsPrimero https://t.co/2Ke5E3syHS".
A subsequent post on November 7 provided further details about the program for this "Night of Museums." The ministry stated, " Disfruta la participación especial de la Orquesta Carlos F. Novella,
y un recorrido de Leyendas de Guatemala interpretado por el grupo Elenco Necroturismo en Guatemala.
7 de noviembre
De 17:00 a 22:00 horas
Entrada gratuita
#ElPuebloDignoEsPrimero".
In another announcement on November 7, the ministry reported progress in expanding access to cultural resources nationwide. The tweet read, "#Guatemala | Se han abierto 13 nuevas Casas de Desarrollo Cultural en once departamentos del país, alcanzando un total de 58 sedes activas en el 2025.
Conoce las sedes implementadas. https://t.co/R14tsphd5Y
#ElPuebloDignoEsPrimero".
The establishment of new Casas de Desarrollo Cultural reflects ongoing efforts by Guatemalan authorities to decentralize cultural programming and make arts education more accessible throughout various regions. These centers are designed to promote local traditions and support community-based artistic activities.
The Ministry's initiatives are part of broader policies aimed at fostering national identity and cultural heritage preservation in Guatemala.
