This October starts asking for a jacket but the weather will not be an excuse to stay at home.
This week the usual agenda of free events has shows to think of the most diverse audiences.
There is a lot of good music and exhibits, but also virtual reality and ateliers to think of the younger ones and even a fun ‘invasion’ of clowns by Vila do Conde.
The best thing is to rest your wallet and look for the cultural suggestions and tassels that we have for you, in Greater Porto and Greater Lisbon, these days 12, 13 and 14 October.

In Lisbon there is an exhibition that explores other senses than vision. It is called ‘See with other eyes’, it will be at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and emphasizes the work done with people with blindness or with low vision. The exhibition aims to explore different processes of interpretation of works, through other senses than the vision – touch, hearing – in order to facilitate the access of people with visual impairment to the arts. The exhibition ‘See with other eyes’ will be evident in the headquarters building of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation until November 12.
