Artistic intervention in Chaves

The Santa Maria Maior Parish Council promoted an urban art initiative named “Hidden Heritage in the Historic Center of Chaves” and was supported by EDP Distribuição, which made its assets available for the artistic intervention.

In the main streets of the city, the artistic interventions associated with the history of the Chaves community are already visible.

Cooper, washerwoman, basket maker, blacksmith, greaser and ardina are some of the professions that can be found in the EDP Distribuição cabinets.

The drawings and paintings came from the hands of four Chaves artists: André Gomes, Ricardo Nuno Gomes, Alfredo Espirito Santo and Dimitri Rodrigues.

The action is still ongoing and has been supported by the Company, which has ensured that interventions are authorized and carried out with the necessary security.
