C.A.Co Market (Artisanal Ceramics in Community)
The C.A.Co. Market (Artisanal Ceramics in Community) is a special event במסגרת the traditional Festas Antoninas of Cruz de Pedra. This initiative is the result of a partnership with the Grupo Cultural e Recreativo da Cruz de Pedra, founded in 1969, and aims to highlight the local ceramic heritage and its long history, involving the community in its organization.
It will take the form of an artisanal ceramics market, featuring invited craftspeople from across the country, held at the Centro de Artes e Ofícios dos Fornos da Cruz de Pedra and in the surrounding areas of Rua das Lameiras. Residents of the neighborhood will also be invited to set up stalls in front of their homes to sell old ceramic pieces they may wish to part with.
During the event, visitors will also be able to take part in various workshops related to ceramic creation, attend the افتتاح of the exhibition resulting from the 2nd edition (2026) of the MICA Artistic Residency, and watch the documentary produced during the residency.
The aim of this event is to integrate a still-inhabited neighborhood—currently somewhat removed from the historic center—into the city’s cultural circuit, creating a festive atmosphere where tradition, art, and community come together.
Project co-financed by the European Union through the NORTE 2030 Regional Programme.
