A escola aliada ao território - o caso da Esproarte, uma educação que toca

Regardless of the extremely important social work that the school is putting into action through all these years, it is today necessary to (re)think about the public space of education and face it as a project of action strategically shared within the school, families and other social, cultural and political actors that operate in a certain territory that, without neglecting each other’s specific missions and domains are yet able to venture on a commitment which is everyone’s. It is based on this aim that one wants to emphasise the case of the ESPROARTE - Professional School of Art of Mirandela, a visionary and avant garde project, during these 25 years of existence, which has been extended and shared in the surroundings and seen from an entrepreneurial way as well as it has gotten support from the local organizations and, above all, from the municipality that provided the opening of a new cultural cycle, not only in the city of Mirandela but in the entire region.
