The Beautiful and the Useful - What belongs to Us

Many arts and crafts have lost sense. Others have been replaced by similar industrial equivalents. Others, despite everything, lasted without organization, without defence, feeding off a knowledge kept for a long time through hard work in a market without rules.
The municipality has a varied and active folklore, where the "vira" dance, together with traditional games can still be tried out in some places (Quinta do Pinheiro, Malha Pavilion) along with some forms of popular theatre.
The memory. The knowledge long kept and passed on for generations. The learning potential. The cultural importance. The economic value. The job capacity. The use. The Beautiful. The widely perfected techniques. History. Our roots. The autonomy lesson. The symbolic meaning. The authenticity. These are some of the attributes of the crafts not to be forgotten or wasted:
