Addressing education and its role in culture, we take as a reference the batucada Milionários do Samba from the Santo Antônio neighborhood, known as Barro Vermelho. The methodology applied involves reviewing the literature on cultural education, documentary research on the history of batucada in Brazil and exploratory research on the batucada Milionários do Samba. Taking as a theoretical basis the distinction between formal and popular training processes, the research points to the possibilities of adapting educational practices in the municipality, so that they can encompass the culture of batucada, especially in basic education, with the aim of highlighting the characteristic of cultural manifestations. local areas of Barro Vermelho and their potential to strengthen identity bonds. It is concluded that the visibility of local cultural practices, via formal educational processes or based on local knowledge, also accentuates the identity ties of residents and contributes to the visibility of a cultural identity different from the municipality of Penedo itself.ptPenedoBarro VermelhoBatucadaEducação CulturalCultura Local.Trabalho de Conclusão de CursoCIENCIAS HUMANAS::EDUCACAO
