Atelier Carlos Botelho Outubro 2026
This October, Atelier Carlos Botelho, a creative space in Cascais run by the arts collective CASA - Laboratório de Criação, offers a full month of weekly classes and one-off workshops for all ages, from toddlers aged 18 months and their families to adults.
The regular classes cover dance, choir singing, collage, yoga, ceramics, wood carving, drawing and nature-based art for children. They take place throughout the week and suit anyone who wants to build a creative practice over time. If you'd rather try something new in a single session, the one-off workshops include printing with Lego bricks, world dance for families, clothing upcycling, creative writing, a full-day spoon-carving masterclass, building a vertical vegetable tower and drawing from nature in the garden. Most sessions are taught in Portuguese.
