ART MEETS ECOLOGY
Join us for a 5-day off-grid experiment in regenerative arts and communal living. We are gathering up to 70 creators, builders, and ecological stewards in the mountains of Northern Portugal. Operating on principles of radical self-reliance and active participation, we will co-create art, tend the land, and share our skills. You bring your tools, your creativity, and your capacity to contribute; we provide the living canvas, the infrastructure, and the curation.The experiment will be held at A Corujeira off-grid regenerative arts residency. Nestled in a secluded valley with mossy oaks, a wood-fired sauna, and springfed waterfalls, this is an invitation to transform a recovering landscape into an emergent village where our combined creativity restores the land and each other.
