By Zoila Palma: The Benque House of Culture marked its 25th anniversary on Monday, September 7, 2026, with a special Jubilee celebration highlighting 25 years of culture, heritage, community and growth in Benque Viejo del Carmen.
The celebration honored CACHE, the founding organization of the Benque House of Culture, for its enduring partnership and contribution to nurturing and strengthening the town’s cultural journey over the past quarter-century.
As part of the milestone celebration, 25 trees were planted to represent the 25 years of the institution’s cultural work.
The initiative was supported by the Forestry Department through the Greening Belize Initiative, alongside stakeholders and members of the community.
The tree-planting activity brought this year’s theme, “Rooted in Culture,” to life, symbolizing the deep cultural roots of Benque Viejo, continued growth and a shared commitment to preserving and promoting Belize’s heritage for future generations.
Special recognition was also given to Yasser Musa and David Ruiz for highlighting and commemorating the meaningful milestone.
