5 days of art for our 5th anniversary
​
In October 2020, the Beacon of the Freed celebrated its 5th anniversary. For the occasion, and given the current sanitary measures due to COVID-19, a virtual format was developed. Five artists from five very different spheres generously agreed to each produce an artwork for this event.
​
This activity aimed not only to mark the 5th anniversary of the Beacon of the Freed in an original and creative way, but also to educate the general public through an approach that appeals to people in an artistic and expressive way.
