A Semana do Mestre José Rodrigues, que decorre em Alfândega da Fé, destaca a arte, a memória e a criatividade, celebrando os 90 anos do nascimento do artista plástico. Esta iniciativa visa homenagear uma figura marcante da cultura portuguesa, cujas raízes estão no concelho.
O evento não se limita a recordar o percurso de José Rodrigues; procura também manter viva a sua herança artística e despertar o interesse pela arte na comunidade. A programação valoriza o papel da cultura na identidade local e promove o contacto com diversas formas de expressão artística.
