Resumen

MELO, Sara. Texturas, or on the social effects of arts. Sociologia [online]. 2015, vol.30, pp.11-33. ISSN 0872-3419.

This article aims to contribute to the questioning and critical discussion around the cultural participation and the social effects of arts, with the background of a community intervention project - Texturas - developed under the Santa Maria da Feira's International Festival of Street Theatre. The research that underlies it sought to understand the meaning given to the experience by individuals, socially and culturally distant from the art world. It is concluded that the artistic participation has generated a set of transformative (and positive) consequences in the lives of the protagonists.

Palabras clave : artistic projects; theatre; social effects of arts.
