#SOS PIGMALIÃO

You, who follow our work, who already watched a group's spectacle and was touched, who returned and watch it again; who participated in a creating process, who already did one of our workshop or would like to do the first; who have rehearsed in our space or were inspired by it, who think that cultural spaces have to be supported and strengthened because they make a big difference for people and for the city. 

You, who think that is important for Pigmalião to keep its doors open, encouraging artistic creation and offering specialized formation in puppetry and visual theater:

 

Can you help us in this difficult time?


Unfortunately, the crisis caused by Coronavirus is in the beginning here in Brazil and we know that we are going to pass through a very difficult period in the next months. It will be really complicate for Pigmalião to maintain its space. The last two years we already deparate with many cuts and decrease in the cultural policies for political reasons and it will be a hard challenge for the group, which today counts 10 members, to keep their activities running. 

With the pandemic things got worse. Today we have projects stopped with no resumption date, presentations and workshops canceled and no prospect of hiring in the next months, but the rent and bills continue to expire, and they are numerous and frightening! 

You can make the difference and help us to sustain our space until it will works again! 

We have many things to offer in return as soon as all of this will be past:
