We Collaborate
We understand contemporary art as a space where attention is drawn to the tensions of today’s world. For this reason we work in networks with associations and organizations of the city offering a space for dialogue and collaboration.

Sponsor your facilities
Sponsor your facilities
Thanks to the collaboration framework agreement between the institutions of the Barcelona Provincial Council (DIBA), Foment de Ciutat, Fundació Tot Raval, CCCB, MACBA, Maritime Museum of Barcelona (Drassanes), Filmoteca de Catalunya and the Liceu, the foundations of the educational project Sponsor your facilities, which aims to acquaint all students in the Raval with the big cultural facilities in the neighbourhood, were established. In addition, the intention is to develop a long-term shared process that is part of the academic curriculum and for students to achieve learning through their participation in an enriching educational experience.
Out of Reserves
Out of Reserves
Out of Reserves is a temporary hosting programme in public schools for works from the city’s contemporary art collection, created by current artists in Barcelona. Sourced from the municipally owned artwork collection, a large part of the pieces were acquired using the COVID-19 Fund from 2020. The project, which includes the installation and exhibition of the works in secondary and primary schools, recognises these educational centres as exhibition spaces and an extension of the institution-museum itself.
