ORG.I.A - ORGANIZATION, INVESTIGATION AND ARTS

ORG.I.A is an organization that promotes artistic experimentation in the field of dance and performance.

Its main objective is to provide conditions for the creation of new concepts of representation, programming and creation.

It develops and promotes projects and independent curatorship and proposes to investigate other ways of operating in the arts in Portugal.

It aims to contribute to a new dynamic in the performing arts, in a movement of liberation from current programmatic constraints, promoting the empowerment of creators and their autonomy and independence, both in the production of their shows and in their programming.

ORG.I.A also provides support and consultancy to emerging and independent artists and supports the financial management of their projects.

It supports the sector through financial grants, strategic advice, production and creative consultancy.

It has also developed alternative programming proposals such as Peep Show and three editions of the Dançar é a Minha Revolução event.
