The INET-md Research Group Education, Music and Theatre in the Community will hold the colloquium Artistic Practices in the Community on 17 October 2026. This event aims to provide a space for sharing experiences and reflecting on research objectives and methodologies related to the broad theme of Artistic Practices in the Community, including music and other art forms. It will focus particularly on artistic practices in diverse contexts, involving participants from different regions and countries and carried out by various institutions.
The format will differ from the conventional conference format, which generally allows very limited time for discussion. Instead, the programme will be structured to allow time for collective reflection and discussion with participating colleagues and members of the audience.
The Programme includes presentations by the following colleagues:
Ágata Ricca, Alix Sarrouy, Ana Veloso, António Vasconcelos, Graça Boal-Palheiros, Hugo Pequeno, Inês Lamela, Klénio Barros e Matilde Caldas.
Registration: Free and mandatory by 15 October 2026.
Organisers: Graça Boal-Palheiros (Coordinator), Alix Sarrouy, Aoife Hiney and Jorge Alexandre Costa.
This event is funded by national funds through FCT – Foundation for Science and Technology, I.P., within the scope of the project UID 00472 – INET-md – Institute of Ethnomusicology – Centre for Studies in Music and Dance.
