Illustrious Bravense Benvindo Leitão donates copies of his work to local culture

The President of the Municipal Chamber Francisco Tavares, who presided over the event, expressed his deep gratitude for Benvindo Leitao's significant contribution to the preservation and promotion of Brava culture. The work offered stands out as yet another testament to the author's commitment to the island's rich musical tradition.

The specimen destined for the "Eugenio Tavares" House Museum will certainly join the space's valuable collection, enriching knowledge about the history and cultural expressions of Brava. At the "Rodrigo Peres" Municipal Library, the work will be available to the entire community, providing easy access to content that promotes local cultural identity.

Benvindo O. Leitão, who throughout his life in emigration has been a tireless promoter of Brava culture through numerous publications, was warmly praised by the CMB (Brava Municipal Council) for his invaluable contribution to the preservation of the island's cultural heritage.

This donation not only enriches the collection of local institutions, but also reinforces the importance of collaboration between Brava's talented children and entities dedicated to preserving the island's cultural richness. The local community celebrates the generosity of Benvindo O. Leitão and eagerly awaits more valuable contributions that promote Brava culture.
