AEFBAUL
From the will to transform the atmosphere of apathy and passivity in colleges, from which the fine arts did not escape, the current Student Association (Há É) was born.
Há É is built every day. It is adept at open relationships, and endless debates about anything. It will always want you to participate, to come, to build too.
That you realize that it is your school in the first place; that its driving force, before anything else, is the students; and that no matter how consistent things seem to you, everything can and should be questioned.
AIU
Art is Underground is a cultural organization dedicated to promoting the work of emerging artists that seeks to contribute to their visibility and integration in the artistic market. Assuming an intermediary role, Art is Underground emerged from the identification of the lack of opportunities faced by young artists during and after their higher education, as well as the generalized difficulty in accessing contemporary art circuits. With a young team, close to the artistic world, it intends to stimulate a cultural dynamic based on the dialogue between artists, art world agents and institutions.

Gerador is an independent Portuguese platform for journalism, culture and education. The Gerador seeks to provide to its readers increasingly deep and careful information. It understands culture in a broad way, as an expression of human activity and therefore creates, organizes and produces initiatives that seem fundamental to a free and progressive society. Every day the Gerador involves people and entities in numerous projects, from which we can highlight: Festival Oeiras Ignição Gerador; Festival Descobre o teu interior; Festival Cidades Resilientes; Trampolim Gerador; Insties Gerados and EP Colab.
https://gerador.eu/Sociedade Nacional de Belas Artes
It is the oldest and most representative artistic association in Portugal. Here originated the Association of Portuguese Architects and the Order of Architects, the Association of Designers and the Portuguese Section of the AICA. The building of the Sociedade Nacional de Belas Artes is a valuable example of Portuguese architectural eclecticism. All the activities for which it was designed are still alive and taking place in its spaces. The Headquarters, by maintaining its characteristics of origin, function and owner, constituted a heritage that is not inseparable from the activities that take place there.
