Founded by curator and artist Andrea Mendes, Pretação brings artists, educators, and cultural workers together to care for collections, shape learning programs, curate events, and accompany artists through decolonial, accessible practice.
What We Do
We care for historical and artistic collections, preserving stories and making them accessible to wider audiences.
We build welcoming educational programs that bring diverse communities into meaningful conversation with art.
We curate cultural events and accompany artists through thoughtful, multidisciplinary projects.
