Casa Porto Cultural - bridging Brazilian and European cultures

The project

Located on the banks of the beautiful Rio de Contas, Casa Porto Cultural was born with the intention of creating a bridge of culture and knowledge exchange between Brazilian communities and European audiences. The central goal of the project is to offer free access to artistic, sporting and hands-on activities for children and adults.

Dom & Danae, Franco-Brazilian artists, are the creators of the art, education and integration project CASA PORTO CULTURAL. In 2019, they founded the Brasil Sunshine association with the goal of creating a cultural bridge between France and Brazil.
