March event was all about creativity, freedom, arts and such a cool ambience! It was such an amazing event! Saturday morning, for a different kind of vibe, everyone joined in the gardens of the National Museum of Contemporary Art in Chiado for some breakfast, talking and networking, ah, and coffee, of course. This was such an extraordinary event: first time ever in the history of CM Lisbon having an event at the National Museum of Contemporary Art!

We had two talks and a creativity workshop run by Nelson Ferreira, where the participants were guided through the process and took the piece of art with them. And at the same time, chalk painting happened on the floors of the garden, near some cool sculptures. We were surrounded by art and creative vibes.

Jorge Moita was the first speaker, presented a project of high-hand eco-bags called La.Ga and all its versions that have been created over the last years. So cool and inspiring to see how this project grew and got involved in the community, making design accessible, even in a Women’s Jail.

Then we had Nelson Ferreira, a professional painter, passionate about arts, technique and painting. He shared some Greek ancient stories of the most impressive painters of that time. Full of lessons about technique, being the best at what we do and how doing things out of love is the best recipe.

This was a different and inspiring Creative Mornings event. Such a good way to start the weekend! Inspired, creative and artistic! Thanks, Nelson and Jorge for such a journey!
