Keeping the festival-convention format dedicated to music born on the shores of the Atlantic, SQUARE will thus return to bring together artists, professionals and cultural agents from different geographies, crossing concerts, showscases, conferences, conversations and moments of networking.

In Braga, between 27 and 29 January, the Square conference will take place, with a program made of conversations, assemblies, shows, guided tours, movies and radio programs, gathering different perspectives around the idea of Continuity.

The event will give space “to the projects that remain, to the acts of repair and care and to the people who build the support networks of the most alternative musical ecosystem, exploring both the practices that go through generations and the small gestures of transformation that persist beyond industry trends and technological acceleration”.

“ Between the utopia of community radios, the transgenerational artistic collaboration, the reports of artists and structures that have traversed moments of discontinuity and the history of centuries-old instruments preserved by will and popular effort, the program questions how continuity is built, which variables sustain it and which futures can reveal what remains ", underlines the organization.

More news about the musical programming and the people and projects invited to the conference will be announced in October.

Square is a legacy of Braga 25 – Portuguese Capital of Culture, being promoted by Faz Cultura – Braga Municipal Culture Company, with organization of Lovers & Lollypops.
