The island of Madeira will receive one of the 84 grants awarded by the Directorate-General for the Arts (DGArtes) in the 2025 Project Support Program's competition for Street Arts, Circus, Dance, and Theatre Creation.
The selected project, titled 'Refrão Protagonista' and developed by LUZIA, will receive 35,000 euros in funding for its creation in the Theatre field. The final decision, announced this Friday, followed a highly competitive process with 275 applications submitted and 189 left without support.
Of the 84 supported projects, most are located on the mainland, with Greater Lisbon leading with 27 projects. Madeira, along with the Azores and the Algarve, has one selected application. The supported projects are expected to be completed by February 28, 2028.
