The project

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.
