Between September 7 and 13, the 8th Avenue shopping center hosts an exhibition organized by Trapézio Com Rede, a social and professional reintegration project of the Holy House of Mercy of São João da Madeira. The initiative transforms the commercial space into a stage for stories of new beginnings, bringing art to the public.

The exhibited works are inspired by the play "Casa da Partida" and address themes such as addiction and social inclusion. The showcase places art at the center of reflection on these issues, creating a space for community awareness.

Trapézio Com Rede is a project of the Holy House of Mercy of São João da Madeira dedicated to the social and professional reintegration of people in vulnerable situations. The exhibition at 8th Avenue represents an opportunity to raise visibility for the work developed by this project.
