Agenda

Water is the starting point.

Throughout June, Esposende transforms into a meeting point where different voices come together to reflect about, explore, and experience water.

The Living Waters Forum-Festival brings together 45 activities in 25 locations across Esposende — including rivers, beaches, pine forests, museums, archives, estuaries, and spaces rarely accessible to the public—in a decentralized program built in dialogue with the territory.

Throughout the month, more than 20 local and national agents, and more than 80 participants from 10 nationalities—including scientists, artists, educators, researchers, and facilitators—join associations, schools, clubs, public entities, and local communities to imagine new ways of relating to water.

Through workshops, walks, installations, conversations, performances, field trips, and field actions, forum-fest invites you to observe, measure, care for, create, and share.

We meet by the water.

Everything is free.
