Mensagem de Lisboa is a local and digital newspaper made for and in partnership with communities from greater Lisbon. It focusses on communities because that is its main purpose: to have a diverse and inclusive city. Mensagem has been informing, inspiring and empowering Lisbon residents for the past three years with its multimedia stories. Now, it will do the same live, in a monthly edition that combines art and journalism to tell stories of Lisbon, in partnership with EGEAC and Teatro São Luiz. There will be stories of the city about people we all know, and stories that go unnoticed to most Lisbon residents. There will be talks, narratives, poetry, music and live illustration.
