About Organization
Through artistic and cultural projects, both our own and in collaboration with others, we seek to activate citizen involvement and participation, as well as reflection and action on contemporary challenges and issues. We understand the different facets of contemporary art and culture (audiovisual, music, scenic, anthropology, ecology, feminism, queer movement...) as tools for social transformation and as vehicles for citizen understanding and cohesion. Thanks to the fact that we are a multidisciplinary team specialized in different areas of the cultural and creative sector, and with a wide experience in cooperation and the third sector, both nationally and internationally, we have managed to make La Periférica cover different lines of action, from the conceptualization of our own programs and projects, to cultural management and production, as well as the dissemination and promotion of contemporary creation. As cultural agitators, at La Periférica we conceive each project as a new seed to create, from horizontality and collaboration, a better world for everyone. By promoting environmental and social sustainability, we want to contribute to greater solidarity, at a glocal level. All these values cross and are transversal to the projects we carry out, from the contents to the management itself. At La Periférica we always work as a team, in a democratic way, using listening as our main working tool. We ally ourselves, whenever possible, with other networks of professionals and institutions, associations, groups, initiatives and projects with which we share visions, values and ways of doing things to achieve objectives. In addition, we work with many public institutions with which our interests converge.
