WOOL STREET

A fundamental part of WOOL | Covilhã Urban Art is meeting, participating and learning. In this 2024 edition, we’re taking this mission to the limit and introducing RUA WOOL! We’re closing down the center (!!) of Covilhã’s historic center and offering an endless array of activities, in a wide variety of formats and artistic disciplines, and there’s always room for food and drink. RUA WOOL will be home to many (local partners and guests), ready to welcome many more: young, old, residents, visitors, with and without disabilities, of all colors and statures, national and international! Come and party with us!
