Cururupu is one of the gateways to the Selva de Guarás or Maranhenses Reentrances on the western coast of Maranhão. It is a scenery of natural beauties such as islands, beaches, bays, and mangroves, and serves as a backdrop for artistic and cultural manifestations such as "bumba meu boi costa de mão" and criollo tambourine, as well as a rich gastronomy with an emphasis on fish and shrimp. The city also preserves stories and legends such as the enchanted bull of Lençóis Island and the mulatta's pequi, which leave a lasting impression on the memory of Cururupu's residents and will undoubtedly leave a mark on yours as well.

Two of our exhibits were designed exclusively for Cururupu residents, connoisseurs, and culture makers, who will narrate their stories in movies through the eyes of those currently living in the city, thus preserving the memory of their past.
