Since it opened, the Arquipélago – Contemporary Art Center has implemented a strategy that values proximity and promotes training and research through activities that involve the various contemporary artistic fields.

This policy has led to the establishment of ties with several schools, not only from the local community but also from national and international ones, and it plays a major role in the dissemination of culture and contemporary art. In addition, through these close ties with schools, the Arquipélago promotes the loyalty of different audiences.

The Arquipélago – Contemporary Art Center has created specific moments taking into consideration the characteristics, needs and desires of those who visit the centre.
