Retrats de la Gent del Barri aims to boost both local commerce and photographic art and is driven by the Quei15 creative space, together with the neighbourhood’s residents’ and shopkeepers’ associations

Bringing together a neighbourhood on the border of two districts

Yesterday, 28 June, was the last day to visit the 14 shops and organisations where you could find and admire the 48 photographs of the seventh edition of Retrats de la Gent del Barri. A cultural trail created to bring together a neighbourhood between two major districts of Barcelona: Parc and Llacuna del Poblenou.

Why should you be part of this project? Stephy, Mariona and Jessica, three of the businesses that have supported this edition of Retrats de la Gent del Barri, explain it in this short piece filmed by Betevé news.

The seventh edition has come to an end and we are already gathering information to prepare for 2024. When? No date yet, but if you’re interested in taking part behind or in front of the camera, or in lending your shop window and financial support, you can sign up at the following form.
