sketching where you live
knowing a Ocupação 9 de Julho
In this activity, we ask the children to draw us what they consider most important of the place where they live.
A Ocupação do 9 de Julho, after years of evictions and finally recovered in 2016 by the Movemento de Persoas sen Hogar do Centro (MSTC), now hosts 124 families, about 500 people, spread over 14 floors.
Many artists are directly involved in the routine of the Ocupação and the social struggle for dwelling, such as Eduardo Fraipont, Sato do Brasil, Joana Amador, Georgia Kyriakakis, Cacá Mousinho, Néle Azevedo, Ding Musa, Erica Ferrari, Lucas Bambozi, Georgea Miessa, Marcelo Calheiros, Nathalia Leter, among many others.
Color your city
The city/town we are working in has become a playground, an experimental laboratory in which children and teenagers can act from a new point of view.
