Education

Samba teaches, too.

Carnival is history, ancestry, music, literature, dance, visual arts, technology, labor, and popular culture.

The Educational Program at Rio Carnaval Expo invites students and educators to step into this universe, discover the wealth of knowledge that builds a parade, and see how different fields of knowledge can parade together.

Because learning can find its rhythm, too.

Our Mission

Carnival as Experience, Heritage, and Knowledge

The Educational Program at Rio Carnaval Expo stems from a central idea: the Carnival of the samba schools is simultaneously an artistic expression, a community practice, memory, labor, technology, and a way of storytelling about Brazil.

Collection, scenography, documents, costumes, instruments, testimonials, interactive features, and immersive environments form a journey that spans from the origins of samba to the backstage of the parade, reaching the collective experience of the Avenue. Guided mediation organizes this encounter without turning the exhibition into a classroom.
