What is the Mediterranean Diet? The exhibition answers this question by showing its multiple dimensions: the concept of cultural space and ancient Mediterranean lifestyle, an intangible cultural heritage passed down from generation to generation and its social and religious aspects, sacred foods and their symbologies, the products of the sea and land that support a diet of excellence recognized by the WHO – World Health Organization. The central focus is the territory and the multiple heritage of Tavira, the testimonies of the presence of civilizations of Antiquity, the cultural landscapes and products of the Ria Formosa, the productions of the barrocal and the mountains, the festivities and cultural practices that underlie the choice of Tavira as a representative community of Portugal in the application of the Mediterranean Diet to Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity presented in March 2012 at UNESCO headquarters. Films produced under the transnational application are projected and a kitchen space is recreated for information and experimentation activities, learning how to prepare and prepare food and culinary traditions.

Vestiges of an ancient prehistoric settlement with megalithic funerary temples, built and used over several centuries, during the Chalcolithic period (3rd millennium B.C.), constituting a remarkable monumental ensemble. In the surroundings, natural cavities and crypts artificially excavated in the rock (hypogeus) were used, used at the same time as collective tombs. The monuments of the eastern grouping of the necropolis are museographed and can be visited. The monuments of the central tomb cluster are located on public grounds and are accessible to visitors. The remains of the Chalcolithic settlement and the other monuments are located on private properties, with access subject to the prior authorization of the respective owners.
Programmed as the main reference exhibition of the museum, occupying the industrial buildings of the previous factory building and spread over an area of about 1000 m2, “Portimão, Território e Identidade” represents a historical synthesis of the route designed by the local communities, since the pre -history to the present day, highlighting the most representative activities of economic, cultural and social life, divided into three routes.
The preserved industrial memory and the deep historical relationship with the Arade River and the Atlantic are the central themes of this route. Through it, the role of men and women in the most relevant economic activity in Portimão and the Algarve stands out, before the change to the new paradigm, the tourism industry. Departing from the factory space and in particular the refurbished “Casa de Descabeço”, the visitor is taken from the old auction room on the Portimão pier to the heart of the factories, following the process of manufacturing, packaging and promoting canned Portimão. It is divided into 5 cores: ** There is Fish on the Pier ** Between Whistles and “Mermaids” ** “Casa do Descabeço” ** Artes do Cheio, Artes do Voio ** Promotion – From Portimão to the World
In the former cistern at the Factory, where rainwater was collected and reused to feed the factory’s brine tanks and boilers, we now discover moving images of the underwater fauna and flora of the Arade River and the coastline of Portimão. In this same Cistern, in September 2013, the nucleus Ocean Revival – Portimão Underwater Park was installed, which made it possible for our visitors to follow on land what is going on underwater with the ships sunk about three miles from Praia de Alvor .

All these figures contributed to the choice of Portimão as the Best European Sport City in 2019, representing this show a privileged window for an extraordinary year, of great vitality and energy, with an intense program of sporting events that have left an invaluable legacy. The selection of images, which draws a diversified portrait of CED 2019, combines the perspectives of photographers Filipe da Palma (Portimão City Council) and Miguel Veterano (Kore), with the images captured by the young André Guerreiro, Jéssica Coelho, Ana Kovdiei, Verónica Santos, Beatriz Cardoso, Jack Palmer and Ângelo Zambujo, students of the Professional Technical Course in Photography at the Professional School Gil Eanes.

The Manuel Teixeira Gomes Secondary School group – Teatro da Caverna, was formed in the academic year 1993/94 as an extracurricular project.

Over the years, this project has contributed to the personal, school, civic and artistic training of young people and to the creation of a theater audience. Proof of this are the more than 20 shows presented over these 25 years of artistic activity, which, through photographs, setting notes, props, wardrobe and posters, guide the exhibition visitor through the intricacies of what was the group’s journey , in favor of education through art.

In April 2020 in a deep state of confinement, Luis da Cruz and David Piedade launched a photographic “duel” in which the motto was to photograph in the space of the house, a detail, something from everyday life or the domestic animal, where each one explored , in the imposed limitation that physical space required, its infinite expansion of creativity. The result is a collection of photographic pairs, with the “spirituality” that they felt at the time and materialized for prosperity. This will be the first episode of several that Luís da Cruz will curate in the entire space of Villa 11 … Even in the bathrooms!

BURNING MEMORIAL FOR PEDRO AND INÊS DE PORTUGAL ACTA – The Algarve Theater Company The tragedy of D. Pedro I and D. Inês de Castro is among the themes most addressed by arts and literature from around the world. Undoubtedly, the theme occupies a place of great relief and extraordinary curiosity, not only historical but also mythical, philosophical, artistic … ACTA addresses this theme again from a triple perspective of novelty: first, the narrative does not follow the historical chronology of events – our story begins now Pedro and Inês are in the tombs; second, the story will be told only using images and music – therefore, without using the spoken word; third, to direct this show we invited one of the most prominent European directors, specialist in this kind of theatrical performance, the Polish Leszek Mandzik. Scenic Creation: Leszek Mądzik // Coordination and Dramaturgy: Andrzej Kowalski // Musical Direction: Zé Eduardo // Interpreters: Bruno Martins, Carlos Pereira, Cátia Alhandra, Glória Fernandes, Luís de A. Miranda, Luís Manhita, Tânia da Silva, Zé Alegre // Plastic Execution: Tó Quintas // Light Operation: Octávio Oliveira // Sound Operation: Diogo Aleixo

On December 22, 1808, one of the most important concerts in the history of music took place in Vienna – the benefit concert (Akademie) where Beethoven enshrines his reputation as a composer and pianist. Despite the composer having some private sponsorship and enjoying the sale of works to publishers, the organization of a large concert in an important room was not only an important form of fundraising but also an opportunity to show his work. And what a sublime concert it was: imagine hearing the Fifth Symphony for the first time, which still leaves us completely ecstatic … and imagine hearing the Sixth Symphony, the Fourth Piano Concerto, the Choral Fantasy and a long improvisation with Beethoven himself at the piano, the aria ‘Ah Perfido’ and excerpts from his Mass … more than 4 hours of the best music ever composed! The Classical Southern Orchestra thus celebrates the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth with a two-part recreation of this important concert.

SYNOPSIS The journalist Isabel Nery brings us in her new book, the first biography of Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen, in the year that marks the centenary of her birth. The author visited places and people that were part of her history, such as Porto, Greece, Lagos, Travessa das Mónicas in Graça, or the small island of Föhr, in the North Sea, where Jan Andresen, her great-grandfather was originally from , or interviewing more than 60 people, from fisherman José Muchacho, to friend Manuel Alegre, to essayist Eduardo Lourenço, passing by companions of letters and politics, family, translators and researchers.

“PROTECT YOURSELF, STAY HOME, WE’LL HELP”
The country is currently experiencing a period of considerable social, economic and health vulnerability. This situation has been given the best attention and follow-up by the Municipality of Lagoa, and a plan has been drawn up to support the population, which is particularly vulnerable given the economic situation. In this sense, the project arises to provide for situations where the local residents have economic conditions, but belong to the groups with the highest epidemic risk who are without informal support network to be able to go to the supermarket and/or pharmacy. The City Council has in operation a bank of volunteers of the City Council, Parish Councils, IPSS s, Sports clubs and Associations, to be identified and supported the elderly (over 65 years)the carriers of autoimmune diseases and chronic diseases – who are without an informal support network – so that they can stay at home, and support in the need to purchase food and/or pharmaceuticals is left to the volunteer teams.
The Salt, the sun and the south and a different late afternoon in Salina Félix
To the south and in the sun in a late afternoon, the participants of the first action of the initiative “End of Afternoon in Salt” were able to collect their own salt, in an experience that aims to value the profession of salt and salt flower. In Salina Félix, in the middle of the Sapal de Castro Marim and VRSA Nature Reserve, the new salineiros learned about the whole process of artisanal saliniculture, collecting the salt manually, with the ancestral techniques that the fresh salineiros taught them. Home they took an enriching experience, 1 bag of the “best salt in the world” and also 2 packs of salt flower, which they themselves collected from the herseherand. The traditional sea salt of Castro Marim results from the conjugation of the salineiro’s work with the action of tides, sun and winds, and is not subject to any kind of subsequent treatment, presenting naturally white and bright. The salt flower was also observed, although atmospheric conditions did not allow collection. Also the salt flower does not undergo any kind of processing, dries in the sun and is then packed, maintaining the taste and humidity of the sea. This initiative is part of a strategy of valorization and promotion of salineiro and, consequently, of salt, which is one of the ex-libris of Castro Marim. Providing this contact of proximity and familiarization, it hopes to increase and boost the commercialization of local products in the tourist chain. About 2 months ago Castro Marim was also able to see legally protected the name “Sal e Flor de Sal de Castro Marim” (PDO – Protected Designation of Origin). The “End of Afternoon in Salt” is an action organized by the Municipality of Castro Marim and Odiana Association, integrated in the Blue Flag 2020 program and framed in the application “Heritage of Castro Marim: Valorization and Promotion of Local Producers and Endogenous Products”, composed by PO CRESC 2020, PADRE project, supported by Portugal and the European Union, co–financed at 70% by the FEDER.
