Walk&Talk designates the Azores Arts Festival, which takes place every year in July, on the island of São Miguel. Experimental and participatory, the festival motivates the creation of new objects in dialogue with the territory and acts in the involvement of local and migrant communities around the knowledge generated in the expanded field of the arts, intersecting visual arts, performance, music, architecture, and design.Since 2011, Walk&Talk has been moving through the archipelago through an artistic residency program and, throughout its ten editions, it has hosted more than three hundred artists from multiple geographic and disciplinary backgrounds. It operates in networks and co-produces with similar structures, promoting a favorable environment for exchange, co-creation and, from the Azores, imagines new centralities for contemporary artistic production.The festival has taken on new shapes with each edition, not settling on a format and assuming a place of experiment, understood as essential to artistic practice and the exercise of programming and cultural mediation. Currently, its program is organized around daily experiences that expand across the island, in proximity to its spaces, architecture and landscape. Multiple rhythms, scales, and relationships intersect in a program dedicated to new creation (a result of artistic residencies), which materializes in the presentation of installation and exhibition projects, performances, concerts, video, architecture and design.Walk&Talk has Artistic Direction by Jesse James, Luís Brum and Sofia Carolina Botelho and each edition includes a guest curator to co-define the artistic program in its multiple dimensions.

Anda&Fala is a cultural association that promotes the creation, presentation, and circulation of knowledge, projects, and people within the expanded field of visual arts. The association fosters cooperation and artistic exchange by sharing resources, developing skills, and building networks of affection and experiences. Operating from the Azores Archipelago, it seeks to establish alternative centers for contemporary creation, focusing on more autonomous practices grounded in transregional cooperation.Founded in 2011 alongside the first edition of Walk&Talk, the project that initiated its action, Anda&Fala focuses on promoting artistic creation and presentation, as well as developing cultural audiences. In 2020, Anda&Fala established its headquarters at vaga – art and knowledge space, in Ponta Delgada, on São Miguel Island.Through its flagship projects—vaga art space and the Walk&Talk Biennial—the association runs a variety of programs that enhance networks of cooperation and affection, such as the Public Programs, PARES, nova vaga Prize, RARA, Laranjeiras em Flor, Transmalhar, Open Studios São Miguel, the Artistic Residency Program, and the hosting of artists and researchers, in addition to cultural advocacy initiatives.Since 2016, Anda&Fala has been recognized as a Public Utility Entity by the Government of the Azores. In the 2023/2026 cycle, its activity is supported by the Républica Portuguesa - Dgartes, the Government of the Azores, and the Municipality of Ponta Delgada, collaborating with several partners. The association is a founding member of MOVA - Movement for Art and Culture in the Azores, is part of the Azores Pride Organizing Committee, and participates in the Periferias Centrais reflection and working group.Anda&Fala’s projects are programmed by the communal network of artists, curators, and teams involved in its organization, reflecting on the creation, enjoyment, and sustainability of contemporary artistic practices.

Fabric Arts Festival’s was established in 2019, in the city of Fall River, Massachusetts. It was organized by Casa dos Açores de Nova Inglaterra (CANI) and merged Fall River’s past and present narratives and showcased them across the city’s urban structures and dynamics. As it strived to preserve tradition by crossing it with new artistic forms, the festival drew from the city’s cultural and geographic contexts to establish a synergistic dialogue with its territory and local communities, extending an invitation to direct participation in the city’s population and its visitors. The festival proposed to engage the city through a multidisciplinary experience, with an arts circuit stretching over a central area of the city with music concerts, films, exhibitions, talks, site-specific projects and murals.
