MELT – Módulos Experimentais para Transmalhar
MELT is the act of ‘melting’ prejudices through art, the alteration of one's individual and collective ‘state’ for a desired social transformation.
/
In 2025, the 1st edition of MELT involved 21 young people from the Socio-Cultural Facilitator Course at the EPROSEC vocational school in Arrifes, Ponta Delgada. Six MELT – Experimental Modules for Transmalhar were carried out, structured around two main moments: co-creation residencies, which involved people from seven local partner NGOs and nine artists in the creation of artistic projects later presented on MELT Day. Over the course of the year, four performances, one installation and three themed workshops were produced.
Project supported under the 3rd edition of the PARTIS & Art for Change initiative, promoted by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and the ‘la Caixa’ Foundation.
