Conversations around a kitchen
Un lugar donde pasan cosas.
An invitation to think, share and discover how design, architecture, creativity and culture transform the way we inhabit the world(*).
What is it?
Un lugar donde pasan cosas brings together people who, from different disciplines, are shaping the contemporary identity of Valencia.
Architecture · Design · Business · Journalism · Illustration · Craftsmanship · Fashion · Gastronomy
Every gathering starts from a question and from the conviction that cities are also built through conversation. We bring together different perspectives to spark a dialogue that connects disciplines, people and ideas.

And more to be confirmed
Other ways to converse
Alongside the conversations, the season will incorporate open activities that expand the project through other languages and disciplines.
Ojo Garabato
An open illustration gathering driven by the Ojo Garabato collective. Because we believe some conversations can also be drawn.
Open House Valencia
The showroom opens its doors within the festival programme, bringing the space closer to the public and turning it, once again, into a place where things happen.
Sinergía Cultural
A book club and literary gatherings exploring the ideas that inspire creativity. A meeting point to share books, authors and reflections on design, architecture, identity, business and culture. Because reading is also a way of conversing.
