The National Council for Culture and Arts (Conaculta) was created to coordinate cultural and artistic policies, organizations, and agencies. Also, it is dedicated to promote, support and sponsor events that foster culture and arts.

The inmediate precedent of Conaculta was the Department of Culture of the Ministry of Public Education; however, it became independent by presidential decree in 1988, annexing all institutions, departments and agencies from other ministries with mandates of a cultural nature.

Among the reasons that led to its foundation is its role in stimulating and encouraging both artistic and cultural creation, ensuring full freedom of creators. In the same way, it was considered that Conaculta must encourage artistic expressions of social groups from different regions across the country in order to promote, preserve and enrich historic, artistic and cultural heritage of the nation.
