SYMBOLS “Culture of Death & Cultural Life: New Audiences and Creations around European Cemeteries”, led by the Fundación Municipal de Cultural of the Avilés City Council, is an international cultural cooperation project co- financed by the European Commission under the Creative Europe programme.
The two main goals of the project are the exchange of cultural and creative works, and the facilitation of greater access to culture. In order to achieve these goals, funerary symbols are used as a common subject and source of inspiration between the project partners and the artists involves.
