This October PADA is opening its studio doors, inviting visitors to get to know the project in more depth. In a day filled with guest artists and speakers we’ve prepared a program that starts with tours of the studios and gallery and a guided walk through the Industrial Park. And in the afternoon, there will be one roundtable discussion focusing on arts education and a second one about submission and review of portfolio and mentorship to artistic work. There will be a guided visit to the Bolsa Barreiro 2025 group exhibition guided by the curator and participant artists. The day ends with a concert by Sociedade Sonora da Saudade.
