The City of Murcia, through the Department of Culture, directed by Rafael Gomez, has been in contact with the European Network of Cultural Centers European Network of Cultural Centers (ENCC), an international network of cultural centers, founded in Belgium in June 1994.

The idea was shared a few months ago during a meeting at the Civic Center doors Castile with a large group of artists from different disciplines Murcia, who applauded the focus of this initiative: the promotion of cultural industries for job creation.

Europe is a beautiful mosaic of cultures, products of art and art education can teach, perhaps more than the story itself, about daily life and global culture of a region.

Europe becomes smaller as mobility increases and new technologies falling barriers to cooperate with each other.

This, and the nearest interconnection, allow employees to take local cultural institutes strong intermediaries between the arts, artists and the public, not only on a local level but also on a European level.

One of the primary conditions for better cooperation and intense cultural exchange is a better understanding of each other and how we function.

National cultural institutions not only have a mission to perform in the future of Europe.

Also local actors in the cultural field really need a platform where they can meet, talk about their experiences, dream on projects in cooperation with colleagues from all over Europe.

The multidisciplinary cultural centers have their own way of interpretation, their own problems and areas of interest.

The ENCC wants to be your platform: interconnection on a global level to act more strongly in the local community.

Thus, the Department of Culture is developing different strategies within the framework of European program European Cultural Bridge Between Centers (BECC).

In the European Year of Intercultural Dialogue 2008, the ENCC initiated a program of change called the "Cultural Bridge between European centers."

The BECC is an exchange program for staff of cultural institutions and thus experience the performance of other cultural centers in different countries, meet colleagues and become familiar with a new cultural forms.
