The Territory Cycle focuses on contexts and communities neighbouring the Central Elétrica. The cycle’s programming intends to set a new look at the surrounding maps, recognizing ways of life, values, beliefs and traditions of different social groups.
In 2022/2023, the programming of the Territory Cycle was supported by Porto City Council, through the program Criatório.
In 2023/2024, the programming was financed by the European Union – Creative Europe, through the PLANT project.
