The latest in a great series of exhibitions at the Estremoz tourist office that showcases the work of local craftsmen and artists is: Gaiolas com Arte.

On display until 5th September, the exhibition consists of around 15 individually-styled bird boxes made from reclaimed pallet wood, with each one painted to represent a traditional Alentejo monte complete with its own unique name.

Local artist, João Carlos Travassos Pena, from San Bento do Cortiço, is exhibiting some of his more recent pieces of work at the Estremoz tourist office in the town’s main Rossio square.

Running from 3 July to 1 August, the art exhibition Estremoz entitled ‘Horizontes Verticais’, or Vertical Horizons, showcases a series of the artist’s colourful oil-on-canvas paintings and is free to visit.
