Let’s create an exhibition with the CAM Collection?

In the year the Gulbenkian Foundation celebrates its 70th anniversary, CAM, in partnership with the Plano Nacional das Artes (PNA), is presenting its Collection outside its usual space, through a participatory process developed with schools and in collaboration with cultural institutions across mainland Portugal.

With the aim of fostering critical and creative thinking among secondary school students through engagement with contemporary artworks, the initiative began with a competition open to schools in the PNA network. The competition resulted in the selection of three 10th grade classes from different schools outside the Lisbon Metropolitan Area to take part in a participatory curatorial project. This work has resulted in three exhibitions featuring works from the CAM Collection, hosted by institutions in Grândola, Peniche and Baião.
