Coffee and art have a great deal in common. Major historical artists like Candido Portinari and Debret used coffee plantations as inspiration for their works. Both coffee and art awaken similar sensations: coffee through aroma and flavor, while art brings visual beauty and emotional awareness.
Consciencia Cafe Initiatives
Consciencia Cafe opens its space to exhibitions by local visual artists, functioning as both a gallery and a cultural meeting point. This initiative aims to promote the artistic works being created in our community.
