The Educational Department was set up in 2005, essentially aimed at children and young people from the Baixa-Chiado Vertical School Group and some Gil Vicente schools, to stimulate and reflect on the field of contemporary artistic production in a constructive and participatory way, to bring audiences together and train them in the long term. This is essentially civic work with the Association’s surrounding community. The Education Department regularly organizes free guided tours of visual arts exhibitions and residencies in different areas; it runs programs to educate the public and offers access to a specific program of performing arts, both to the school public with which it collaborates and, occasionally, to the general public of children and young people. This activity for pupils and schools best reflects ZDB’s investment in the social and civic sphere.
