The 10 Best Art Galleries in Porto, Northern Portugal
The town that gave the country (and port wine) its very name, Porto is Portugal’s second-largest metropolis after Lisbon. Sometimes called Oporto, it's an age-old city that has one foot firmly in the industrial present. The old town, centered at Ribeira, was built on the hills overlooking the Douro River, and today is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The 14th-century São Francisco church is a main attraction, as are the local port wine cellars, mostly located across the river at Vila Nova de Gaia.

Reviewed By KSharmini - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
I did the watercolour painting experience with Hugo this morning at his studio Lago Artes and it was one of the best activities I’ve done! Hugo and his wife Silvia are two of the kindest, most welcoming hosts I’ve ever met. The art class was easy to follow and so interesting. I learned a lot about how to use watercolours and enjoyed chatting to Hugo and Silvia through the day. The snacks and drinks were a lovely touch and his studio is beautiful. You MUST visit Lago Artes if you are in Porto - you’ll love it. Even if you aren’t an artist, just being around Hugo and Silvia is enough to enjoy!

Porto in Art was founded through the need of the creative artist Manuel Couto to reach people in a closer way. His hard work and necessity to create were hiding him from the public. That's when the idea of finding a place where the artist can expose his art pieces and, at the same time, interact with his clients and friends, came up. We also have a boutique cafe.

The strong relationship between the AMI Foundation and Arts resulted in painting and sculptural exhibitions that were held in a number of different cities. A network of cooperation and contacts was created which allowed the development of the regular sale of artistic productions. As a result, part of the profit went towards the financing of the Foundation's humanitarian work.
