The Carlos Machado Museum's mission is to study and preserve our heritage and, through it, to promote and share the Azorean culture and identity, prioritizing a set of pedagogical activities for different audiences.
Since the Museum is a place of confluences and conviviality, it promotes learning and knowledge, by opening up dialogues and confronting ideas, thus providing creativity. The Museum must assume itself as a space for involvement and active citizenship, as a public service.
The Museum, being a place for everyone, should promote the inclusion of people and cultures.
