| Sumario: | This paper presents a cultural study of the Colombian Revolutionary Armed Forces (in Spanish, Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia, Ejército del Pueblo, FARC-Ep) in its transition to their political party <Comunes>. Based on documents, musicians and artists ex-combatants life stories, the Cultural Hour is identified as fundamental for the FARC´s culture promotion and as an instrument of a cultural policy that allowed ideological affirmation, well-being and cultural diversity integration. Progressively, culture acquires centrality, visible in excerpts from the Tenth National Guerrilla Conference, the last of FARC as an armed movement and guideline as a new political party. The Cultural Hour promoted creative trajectories with the potential to contribute to the peace process’s socio-cultural dimension. For this, it is necessary a cultural policy based on conceptions from the moral imagination and the creative transformation of the conflict that promote their integration into professional contexts of the music, arts and culture.
