I had the privilege to be invited to cover this event on a special session day for the media.
There were several official entities present and a lot of public also. Entry fee for the sessions is 8 euros.

The first exhibition is about the life of Jesus and Popes, with raised the attention of the majority of the public
Another exhibition present and visited was about the Oceans
After this we proceeded to the room where the Fado session was going to take place. On this image the traditional Fado shawl (or in portuguese "xaile") could be seen

After the short video the session started with Fado singer Inês Graça and AFA's guitar players: Mr. Jorge Franco on the portuguese guitar and Mr. Tiago Valentim in the classic guitar
