EDP Art Reef
You've certainly heard of the illustrious artist Vhils (Alexandre Farto), but do you know about his most recent project? Over the last three years, Vhils and his team have been involved in the creation of the EDP Art Reef project, which consisted of visiting several deactivated EDP power plants and collecting abandoned materials, with the aim of building an artificial reef, through recycled and reused materials.
EDP Art Reef is a project that raises awareness of the need for responsible use of resources, as well as raising awareness of environmental issues resulting from human action.
This is an exhibition that will migrate to Albufeira and become an underwater exhibition. But you still have the opportunity to visit the EDP Art Reef while it's on land. The exhibition is completely free and can be visited at the EDP building, in Cais do Sodré (Lisbon) until the 15th of April.
Address: Av. July 24th 12th, 1249-300 Lisbon
Money Museum
True, the museum is dedicated to money, but admission is absolutely free! Fantastic, right?
At the end of the 18th century, the museum was the Church of São Julião, which was transformed into a bank parking lot. In 2007, work began to make room for the museum. Inaugurated in 2016, the museum's biggest bet was interactivity. It is thus possible to go through the history of money and its relationship with society in an interactive way. Did you know that you can mint your image on a coin and you can even touch a 12 kg gold bar?
Address: Largo de São Julião, 1100-150 Lisbon
Shortcutz Lisbon
This international movement began in Lisbon, in 2010, and then spread throughout the world, accumulating exhibition and festival functions, as there are awards.
Until the end of the year, every Tuesday, you have the opportunity to watch three short films, on numerous topics, with free admission, at Sociedade Guilherme Cossoul (Chiado/Cais do Sodré).
Access to one of the productions is free, while the other two are in competition for the Best Short of the Month award.
Address: R. Nova da Piedade 66, 1200-299 Lisbon
