About this plan
The Cinemateca de Bogotá opens the doors of its Diverse Abilities Lab, a free workshop built to explore identity through audiovisual language. The activity is part of the Diálogos de los soles program and runs through October in the BECMA room, the Specialized Library of Cinema and Audiovisual Media.
The space starts with a clear idea: each person is a whole world, and from there you can create. Over several sessions, participants work with gestures, glances, and traces that turn into art pieces using different media and points of view. It is a call to make film, video, and visual experiments without prior experience, in a caring and accessible setting.
The meeting point is on Thursdays from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., with limited spots on a first come, first served basis. If you want free cultural plans in Bogotá and a different kind of creative experience, this lab is a must.
