InArte Meetings 2010

Breadmakers is to be screened at the InArte Meetings 2010, Lisbon, Portugal on Tuesday 14th December 2010 at 6.30pm as part of the Inarte Video Sessions.
The main objective of InArte is to promote and expose art as a useful instrument that can be educational, occupational, therapeutic, and of social integration. In addition it allows consciousness among professionals who currently or in the future will work with disabled people that have fewer opportunities, giving them a tool to fight against social exclusion.
The project will carry on in the future, with an annual event that provides continuity and a possible course in which the most professional and competent authorities will join together with the same purpose.
