Fundació Xarxa Espectacles familiars
The Catalan Children's and Youth Network of Performance Foundation is a non-profit organisation that has been working since 1995 to bring the performing arts closer to children and young people in Catalonia. Based in Terrassa, the foundation coordinates a network of 77 local groups spread across 29 regions of Catalonia, with the help of nearly five hundred volunteers committed to culture.
A stable schedule of family shows
The main activity of the Xarxa Foundation is the regular programming of family shows through its local groups. Each group independently organizes its theater season, which usually coincides with the school year, offering a variety of shows that include theater, puppets, circus and magic, among other disciplines. These shows are aimed at children, young people and families, and are presented at reduced prices to facilitate their access.
Commitment to Catalan culture and language
The Xarxa Foundation is based on values such as the defence of the Catalan language and culture, solidarity and social cohesion. This commitment is reflected in its work of almost three decades, during which it has worked tirelessly to promote the creation of new audiences for culture and to ensure that the performing arts reach all families in the region.
An organizational model based on volunteering
The uniqueness of the Xarxa Foundation lies in its organizational model, based on the creation of local groups that autonomously decide on their programming and activities. The structure allows it to adapt to the needs and characteristics of each community, ensuring a rich and diverse cultural offering.
The volunteers who make up these groups are the driving force of the organisation, dedicating their time and effort to bringing theatre and the performing arts closer to young people.
A significant impact on the Catalan cultural scene
Thanks to its long history and its collaborative work model, the Xarxa Foundation has become a benchmark in the Catalan cultural scene. Its work has contributed to the formation of new audiences and has guaranteed that the performing arts are accessible to all, regardless of their geographical location or socioeconomic situation.
This work has been recognised on multiple occasions, highlighting the importance of the foundation in promoting and disseminating culture in Catalonia.
