as a city of culture with a recognition as a UNESCO Creative City of Media Arts. This project began in 2017 and provided some momentum for culture and creativity in the city, not only in terms of activities and cultural expression, but also in terms of creation and redevelopment of cultural spaces and hubs, plus promotion of gatherings to share experiences. The City of Media Arts has essentially operated out of two “houses” - gnration and the Theatro Circo - and has also helped to revitalise these spaces. The cultural centre gnration is a space for creation, performance, and exhibition in the field of contemporary music and the relationship between art and technology. By adopting a sustained strategy, always open to the community, it intends to confirm its status as a unifying pole for cultural and creative dynamics, making it a space oriented towards educating and raising awareness in a new audience, demonstrating artistic practices relevant from a contemporary and cosmopolitan perspective. The cultural schedule of gnration is founded on two fundamental pillars, which can be viewed independently or jointly. Contemporary music and the relationship between art and technology are central to the programme, whether the profile is performance, exhibition, or education. Also operating inside this space is Startup Braga, a corporate incubator which seeks to foster and encourage entrepreneurship in the city and has the municipality’s support. Today, the Theatro Circo is a really dynamic cultural broadcasting centre, time and again exceeding the target of 100,000 spectators to become a geographical hub.
