The present research is part of the project “Observatory of Teacher Training in Art Education: comparative studies between Brazil and Argentina” (Observatório da Formação de Professores no âmbito do Ensino de Arte: estudos comparados entre Brasil e Argentina). The main objective is to verify if teaching degrees in Visual Arts in the Northeast and South regions of Brazil, with public administrative category and offered in presential modality, offer specific subjects regarding Afro-Brazilian culture and history. With bibliographical approach and documental analysis, with theoretical contribution of Munanga (2019), Vásquez (2011) and Silva (2012), it was found that 14 of the 27 courses present subjects regarding the theme; only one course approaches regional matters on the subjects analyzed; six courses offer a subject to contemplate the Afro-Brazilian thematic, together with the native Indian thematic; and a number of higher education institutions do not offer specific subjects about the thematic, but reference them in a diluted manner in other courses in their curriculum.
