Itinerary
We will pass in front of Parque Vila Jacuí before arriving at the Favela's art gallery. (The visit before arriving at the gallery inside the favela is optional.)
This is not just a tour; Discover the pulse of Brazilian contemporary art in a vibrant and unexplored territory. In this private experience, you will visit Pantanal Favela Studio (PFS), the first contemporary art gallery in União de Vila Nova (East Zone of SP). Guided by its founders—visual artist Rosa Luz and manager Henrique— you will explore the "rooftop" as a creative lab and see works that challenge the traditional art market. Learn about the architecture of survival, social innovation, and how the studio reinvests in the local community. An authentic journey for those seeking to see the future of São Paulo’s art scene up close and safely. The Visit: Co-founder Rosa Luz guides you through the current exhibition, leading an exclusive dialogue Q&A on urban culture and artistic researches in Brazil. Conclude with a final local toast and aperitivos. Why Book: Support an artist-run institution from favela and guarantee your unique passage into the soul of São Paulo’s favela art.
free walk inside the favela and a taste of local flavors: choice of handcrafted "tapioca" or authentic "açaí" from a local community partner. The walk to the tapioca shop is a chance to see the street art and the architecture of the 'União' up close.

About São Paulo
São Paulo is Brazil's largest city, a sprawling metropolis of art museums, street markets and immigrant neighbourhoods, famed for its food.
São Paulo spreads across a plateau about 750 metres above sea level, a sea of towers broken by patches of green. Avenida Paulista is the main boulevard, with the MASP art museum raised on two red concrete frames above a public square. Ibirapuera Park has curving buildings by Oscar Niemeyer, and the Pinacoteca in the old centre shows Brazilian art in a brick building beside the Jardim da Luz.
Top-ranked sights in São Paulo: Paulista Avenue (Avenida Paulista), Sao Paulo Municipal Theater (Theatro Municipal), Sé Cathedral (Catedral da Sé).
