StartArt is a place that not only offers a beautiful landscape to inspire, but activities to help people get outside of their comfort zone and become BOLD.
We have developed a program with activities where residents can be immersed in different types of art, such as photography, theatre, painting and also workshops that help people connect between themselves.
Since our first mural, StartArt has hosted more than 100 artists, chefs and creative people from six continents and thirty-two countries in the last two years.
People define their stay as a life changing experience, connecting with residents from different parts of the world, sharing not only meals and skills, but also their stories and dreams.
We aim to support artists to find their way to live from their art. We want them to believe in their dream, to make it happen!
Food is the base of the whole project. We enjoy breakfast, lunch, and dinner together as a family so that we can connect and collaborate with our community.
The meals provided are delicious and healthy. We follow a vegetarian diet created from seasonal, local produce purchased at the Braga Municipal Market.
Our menu has been created by Ohm, an international chef with over thirty years of experience, who focused on flavors as well as nutrition.
Twice a week, we go together to Braga´s Mercado Municipal interacting with local producers, talking Portuguese and discovering all the flavors and aroma of seasonal ingredients.
We are very aware of our consumption habits impact in nature, that is why more than 80% of our food consumption is based on products and ingredients that we buy in this local market.
