Fazer Presente is an artistic and community project that brings together 40 senior citizens, from rural and geographically dispersed parishes in the municipality of Guimarães, and 70 young (former) theatre students from the University of Minho.

The project explores the experiences and perceptions of the senior population through theatre and participatory artistic creation, in an intergenerational dynamic that favours sustainable and healthy ageing.

With artistic coordination by Manuela Ferreira, Fazer Presente was one of the projects supported by the 1st edition of the PARTIS & Art for Change initiative.
