Culture ideas for quarantine

Due to the current health situation, we are all called to limit our life outside the home, with the aim of slowing the coronavirus contagion curve.

To make these days easier to bear, the City Council's culture technician Xosé Gago proposes a series of free resources available online to entertain us. 

To see

– The web series Wineries of Memory, recorded in the Guimaras parish of Vilachá de Salvadur. 

– Galician TVG series in the open, from the legendary ‘Mareas Vivas’ or ‘Pratos Combinados’, to the most recent.

– The series ‘Néboa’, in which Nuncy Valcárcel de Salcedo works, is also available online on the RTVE page.

To read

– ‘The forest of chromosomes’, a collection of articles published in the magazine Luzes by the poet and writer from Vilarmao, Olga Novo. We recommend all of them, but perhaps especially the article ‘Amada sombra guímara’.

– Collection of classic books of Galician literature, open in Galician, the digital library of Galicia.

– Virtual Library of Universal Literature in Galician, from the Galician Translators Association

– Books of Axóuxere editorial with free PDF download

– More than 2000 titles available in Portuguese in Public Domain website

A number of initiatives are also emerging ad hoc to get through quarantine. For example: Sofa Music in Facebook or Instagram (reverse entry), and the #pandemiadecontos initiative in YouTube account of the NOGA collective (Galician Oral Narration).  

We hope these suggestions help you in these days of sofa and blanket! We also want your ideas. Collaborate by contacting us through our social networks (Facebook, Twitter or Instagram).
