About
The Cooperative Nascente completes in May 2020 no less than 44 years of a very active and present existence in Espinho. The cultural and civic action it develops is based on a varied set of permanent sections - CINANIMA, the Popular Theatre of Espinho, Animartes, the Forum Nascente and the weekly newspaper Maré Viva, each with its own objectives and regular activities.
Nascente is also responsible for a varied set of initiatives and cultural events, with emphasis on popular music recitals, cultural outings, celebrations of various ephemerides, visits to shows, training courses, poetry, art, etc. Throughout a rich journey of more than four decades, this cultural action cooperative has carried out the most diverse cultural and civic interventions, in areas as varied as senior education, cinema, reading promotion, musical and theatrical animation, artistic intervention, journalism, work with children, photography. A dynamic always based on the participation of many volunteers, which allows us to state that it has developed a relevant social role, assuming itself as an informal training space, a true civic and cultural school for generations. For all this, the Cooperativa Nascente has deserved the adhesion of a significant number of associates, which at this moment are approaching 700, and was awarded by the Municipality of Espinho, in 2016, with a public recognition and homage. Founded in May 1976, Nascente has been a public utility collectivity since 1989. |
