Renata Brites has lived in Santa Clara for about three years and wanted to get to know the place where she lived. The opportunity arose when going to events at Quinta Alegre, more specifically at Palácio Marquês do Alegrete. There, they told him that there was a group of residents and people with some connection to the parish who were thinking about activities for this area of Lisbon, the Alegretes. The invitation came and she wanted to be part of it. Now, she is one of those responsible for the Santa Clara community meeting, “Is this a community?”, which involves music, cooking and conversation and will take place in the palace garden, on Saturday, from 1pm to 7pm. Entry is free.
