Our Story

Studio Bacalhau is an independent artist-run space overlooking the beautiful Setúbal bay in Portugal.

Shoreline of Setubal. With Rocks and sands and a extended horizon.

”Studio Bacalhau is a working studio, gallery, and gathering place where art, memory, and community meet”.

— Verghis, Artist/Curator

Founded with a spirit of slow process and creative freedom, Studio Bacalhau holds space for experimental practices, intimate exhibitions, open mics, film screenings, and hands-on workshops. We believe art can be an everyday act of resistance, connection, and care; whether you come to make, share, or simply be.

Whether you’re an artist, a curious neighbour, or a visitor passing through, you’re welcome to join us.

Art as Ritual

Each workshop or quiet evening is a reminder; making can be slow, shared and alive.
