General Information

O Corvo e a Raposa is a Portuguese non-profit cultural association, founded in 2017 and headquartered in Raposeira, Vila do Bispo, a rural village in the west-end of the Iberian Peninsula. The direction’s founders is made up of 3 female cultural entrepreneurs originally from different regions of Portugal, combining different professional profiles, which allows for a unique artistic symbiosis, that work on a voluntary basis. Originally from Porto, Lisbon and Catalonia, they found their residence in the Algarve in 2017, looking for the artistic enhancement of the Western Algarve, as well as national & international circulation, with a particu-lar focus on the promotion of contemporary visual arts & intangible cultural heritage in music.

O Corvo e a Raposa works regularly with several municipalities located in non-metropolitan areas, such as Vila do Bispo, Lagoa do Algarve, Portimão, Idanha-a-Nova and Ponte de Lima, and with projects supported by regional and national institutions such as Fundação GDA, Directorate Regional for Culture Algarve/North Portugal, and Directorate General for the Arts (DGARTES).

The budgetary resources vary on the annual applications to the national and regional arts support funds, as well as the municipalities involvment on specific projects.
