Colombina Clandestina asks the entire community to participate in the crowdfunding. With the background, we will acquire a sound system to fill the public space with joy.
Colombina Clandestina is an independent artivist collective from Lisbon. Pioneers in the union of Carnival with activism, since 2017, we have generated high social, local and mass impact.
We were pioneers in rescuing Lisbon's street carnival!
Our artistic projects connect people of different identities, genders, origins and beliefs around one feeling: joy!

Colombina
We are a non-profit collective and we believe in using the street and public space as a stage for culture. This crowdfunding (soooo! 🐮) aims to raise funds for the collective Colombina Clandestina to acquire a sound system with enough capacity to (together with its 50 percussionists) take diverse, inclusive and egalitarian messages to the streets.
Whenever we are on the streets it is a success! But, in only a few cases, we are able to afford to rent a sound system to amplify the singers' voices, as well as the wind instruments that help us with pressure. Therefore, our most complete performances end up being very concentrated in the Carnival period.
With its own sound system, Colombina Clandestina will be able to be on the streets throughout the year, close to its community! Our goal is for the whole community to enjoy the fruits of this crowdfunding, since with a complete sound system, we will hold the most diverse events with the most cathartic sound on the street!
