Prado is a ruminating platform that brings together artists and collaborators from different areas, looking for intersecting spaces between different artistic, theoretical, performing, scientific and literary forms. It is our aim to spread ourselves (in a literal but also in a more complex sense), over as many spheres of action (physical and/or virtual) as possible, looking always for other ways of meeting our audience, other artists, authors and all collaborators, promoting a confrontation that we hope will always be healthy and critical in relation to the world of today.

Prado is financed by Governo de Portugal – Secretário Geral das Artes / Direcção-Geral das Artes
Prado is a partner of Galeria Zé dos Bois
