The Municipality of Paredes de Coura is located in the northeast of Portugal and inhabited by about nine thousand inhabitants and includes sixteen parishes. The Municipality considers culture as one of the strategic levers of social and economic intervention and the results are already visible at the social and educational levels in both infrastructures and events.
Some of the most relevant infrastructures are the Environmental Education Centre, the Arts Barracks, the Cultural Centre, the “Caixa de Brinquedos” (Toy Box – an innovative space that opened its doors in 2015 and which places Lego in the forefront of attention) or and the “Caixa da Musica” (Music Box).
On the other hand, the most iconic event is the internationally recognised “Paredes de Coura Music Festival”, along with other festivals and exhibitions such as the “Mundo ao Contrário” (international festival of performing and street arts), the “Arte em Peças” and “Fan Weekend“(exhibitions of Lego buildings with exhibitors from all over the world), the “Fitavale” – the travelling amateur theatre festival of Alto Minho and the School of Rock Paredes de Coura, among others.
Space Ensemble is an artistic organisation that produces various shows, events and community projects, crossing music with other artistic areas. It emerged on the Portuguese national scene as a mutant musical formation and currently works with several musicians and creative professionals, capable of assuming different roles: artistic and creative direction, musical composition, production, music education, among others. Our work is based on three main pillars: cultural production of artistic programmes and events, participatory projects where we work closely with several communities, and the design and implementation of non-formal educational projects related to music and arts, where we can approach different themes creatively and unconventionally.
