Junta-te a nós para uma noite de melodias improvisadas e conversas musicais na Good Company Bookstore!

Depois de anos a viajar, tocar e absorver as músicas do mundo, o francês&nbsp;Paul-Énéour Yvon&nbsp;e o chinês&nbsp;Jianan Hua&nbsp;cruzaram os seus caminhos nas ruas da capital portuguesa. Cada um trazia consigo paisagens, histórias e influências recolhidas ao longo de milhares de quilómetros. Entre melodias improvisadas e conversas musicais, descobriram uma linguagem comum que ultrapassa fronteiras e palavras.

Juntos, criam uma música sem passaporte. As suas composições viajam entre continentes, cruzando influências da China e do Japão com ritmos da África Ocidental, melodias do Médio Oriente e ecos das montanhas andinas.

Os bilhetes custam 5 euros. Esgotam rapidamente, por isso não percas tempo e compra já os teus bilhetes!&nbsp;

Os lugares sentados são limitados, por ordem de chegada.

Join us for a guided wine tasting with Who's Wine? in Good Company Bookstore!

Every wine region has its own canon of classic stories. This is not one of those; some regions are best read off the beaten track.

On August 21st, we’re turning the page to Vinho Verde.

Together with Mário Marques, we’ll leave the comfortable quintas of the familiar and travel into the region’s stranger, deeper, and more compelling corners: granite hills, Atlantic rain, steep valleys, native grapes, and wines with little patience for good manners or easy classification.

Think less summer paperback and more collected works. In this oeuvre you’ll discover white wines with texture and tension, reds with secret history, and bottles that reveal how much has been hidden behind two deceptively simple words: Vinho Verde.

Somewhere between the city and the mountains, the region becomes far more interesting than its reputation. Eça would probably have raised an eyebrow. We’ll raise a glass.

Please note, there are 2 time slots; at 18:00 and 19:30 for you to pick from when purchasing the ticket!&nbsp;

Space is limited, so please reserve your spot! Tickets include a guided tasting plus snacks. Additional wines will be available to purchase by glass or bottle.

By Metro: We're situated a 5-minute walk from the Campo Pequeno metro (Yellow line) and a 10-minute walk from the Alameda metro (Green &amp; Red lines).

By Bus:&nbsp;There are many convenient bus options 2 blocks away from us on Avenida República, with the closest stop to our store being Campo Pequeno-Av. Republica.

By Bike:&nbsp;If you're using the Gira public bicycles, there is a docking station right across the street (#431 - Rua do Arco Cego / Av. Magalhães Lima).

By Car:&nbsp;There is a paid parking lot across the street, between Rua Arco do Cego and Rua Dona Filipa de Vilhena. Street parking is also available around the neighborhood.

Círculo de Poesia

Join us for the workshop with artist Lara Peres Rocha where you explore illustration of "Invisible Cities"!

An idea, a conversation, an image. An entire city, perhaps.

Over 2 hours, we'll read together from a chosen book or text, discuss the ideas present, and develop visual responses through drawing and illustration. We'll enter a translation process where word becomes image, as we explore our artistic side on the page.

The emphasis is on exchange of thoughts, materials, and ways of seeing. Participants are encouraged to share ideas with each other in a collaborative and open atmosphere.&nbsp;

Some materials will be available but you are invited to bring your favourites along.&nbsp;

No experience required, just curiosity to see what is and isn’t there, dancing inside the lines of a book. Bring a friend, select your drink of choice, and join us downstairs for some drawing.

I am a 25 year-old creative in love with the world and the people around me. I am extremely curious and invested in the small stories each of us live every day. I love finding magic in the mundane - grocery lists, the way we tie our shoelaces - the small things that make us unique. I find in these moments some of the biggest metaphors for life, and i use them to carry meaning through my illustration. I often reference Portuguese culture, from the landscapes of Lisbon, to the colourful and wonky nature of my images. I create dynamic illustrations that move across the page and speak to our emotions, using mixed-media

I love books, philosophy, knitting, and movement.

I’m looking forward to seeing where my pencil takes me next!

<a href="https://www.laraperesrocha.com/aboutme" target="_blank">Find out about Lara here!&nbsp;</a>

The event ticket costs €15. All materials are included + 1 beverage at the café. Enjoy!

Invisible Cities: From Word to Image Workshop

Junta-te a nós para uma manhã de domingo criativa e divertida com a nossa oficina de arte!&nbsp;

A nossa oficina surge como uma extensão das sessões de leitura que acontecem aos sábados na Good Company Books. O objetivo é dar corpo ao mundo interior de cada participante, seja a partir das histórias ouvidas no dia anterior ou da necessidade de transpor as suas próprias fantasias para formas, cores e texturas.&nbsp;

O evento tem um custo de 7 euros (+taxa). Pedimos que faças a reserva com antecedência para podermos preparar materiais suficientes para todos os pequenos artistas. Por favor, seleciona quantos adultos irão acompanhar. Se não puderes comparecer, pedimos que canceles o teu bilhete para que outros possam participar.&nbsp;

Cada sessão é única e oferece um roteiro estruturado, desenhado para guiar cada criança na exploração dos contornos da sua imaginação. Vamos descobrir diferentes temas, técnicas e suportes em cada encontro. Aqui, desmistificamos a ideia do não ter jeito ou não consigo e celebramos a experimentação como parte essencial do processo.&nbsp;

Nada de especial, traz apenas a tua curiosidade! Nós fornecemos todos os materiais necessários para materializar ideias em criações físicas.&nbsp;

Esta oficina é para todas as crianças que queiram expandir os seus horizontes criativos através da arte. Para que se sintam seguras e integradas, os pais e cuidadores são bem-vindos a acompanhar as sessões.&nbsp;

O projeto está aberto a sugestões! A nossa anfitriã, Margarida, estará atenta aos gostos e propostas de cada criança, de forma a ir moldando a sua oferta aos nossos pequenos artistas.&nbsp;

Oficina de arte para crianças: Pintar com papel crepe

Junte-se a nós na Good Company Books para a inauguração da exposição da artista portuguesa Márcia Mendes!

Na exposição Terras do Pano, Márcia Mendes manipula o fio como tecnologia de relação e procura uma prática onde o&nbsp;gesto&nbsp;deixe de produzir objetos e passe a produzir estados. Encontra na tecelagem e no bordado coreografias de reestruturação do pensamento e do sentir. Porque se repete.

Recodifico quando repito. Porque se repete?

Pelo gosto às coisas, que a leva de terra em terra, posto em posto, ponto a ponto. Mantendo a escala fiel à viagem: portátil. As linhas e fios ganham forma no cuidado insubmisso das mãos que experimentam ser sem terem de ser. O tear foi a primeira máquina a saber ler a preto e branco, enquanto a mulher se revelava bicho capaz de virar do avesso os gestos que a amarravam, em gestos de ser.

Márcia Mendes é uma artista portuguesa que trabalha instalação&nbsp;e&nbsp;performance em práticas colaborativas. É licenciada em Moda e Design Têxtil na Escola Superior de Artes Aplicadas de Castelo Branco, e já trabalhou como docente de projeto têxtil na Escola Secundária Artística António Arroio, em Lisboa. Ensinar tornou-se um espaço importante de reflexão e experimentação, levando-a a aprofundar o seu entendimento sobre os aspetos performativos da arte têxtil, não apenas pela sua materialidade, mas pela sua capacidade de ser ferramenta de interação.&nbsp;Atualmente dedica-se à conclusão do estudo de mestrado em Práticas de Arte Contemporânea na Faculdade de Artes de Bern, na Suíça e tem por principal foco de investigação as formas em que corpo, têxtil e tecnologia se relacionam, despoltando territórios de confronto e reconexão.&nbsp;

19:00 – Abertura das portas. Pede uma bebida e conversa com a artista!

Curado por Beatriz Catarino

O evento é gratuito, mas o espaço é limitado, por favor registe-se para segurar um lugar.

De bicicleta:&nbsp;Se estiveres a utilizar as bicicletas públicas Gira, há uma estação de estacionamento do outro lado da rua (n.º 431 - Rua do Arco Cego / Av. Magalhães Lima).

Queer Book Club

Join us at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/goodcompanybookstore/" target="_blank">Good Company Bookstore&nbsp;</a>for an intimate evening of live music, where storytelling and melody come together in a cosy bookshop setting. With a glass of wine in hand, settle in and let two incredible artists transport you with their heartfelt performances.

<a href="https://www.instagram.com/roberto_montisano/" target="_blank">Roberto Montisano</a>&nbsp;is an Italian singer-songwriter and musician who lives between Italy and Portugal. His music blends indie rock guitars, dream-pop synths, and an uneasy sense of nostalgia.

Roberto's songs tell stories of everyday gestures, alienating work, the swelling tide, and the silhouette of a loved one—a mix of sunshine and rain, a gentle melancholy that reflects both the hardships and the beauty of being alive.

<a href="https://www.instagram.com/santosfalcao" target="_blank">Gabriel Falcão</a>&nbsp;is a Brazilian multi-artist, nature lover, and passionate advocate for community spirit. With percussive and rhythmic roots, Gab also incorporates immersive and exciting melodies into his music. His lyrics reflect his life lessons and experiences. Fire and dance are integral parts of his artistic expression, seamlessly intertwined with his music.

6.45pm&nbsp;- Doors open. Grab a drink and snack and say hello before the music starts.

7.15pm&nbsp;- The music will begin. Chairs are first come, first serve but we also have plenty of standing and floor seating space available. Two artists will perform with a short interval in between.

9.00pm&nbsp;- The show should be finished.

Live Music Concert with Roberto Montisano & Gabriel Falcão 

Join us for an evening of books, conversation, and community as we dive celebrate works of lusophone authors!

Hosted in English but readers are welcome to read in both the Portuguese original and the English translation.

Here at&nbsp;Good Company, we are passionate about translations, especially of Lusophone authors. That's why we wanted to start this book club, to further our community by exploring the multicultural literary traditions, and the beauty of the Portuguese language.

Book of the month: The Book of Disquiet by Fernando Pessoa&nbsp;

<a href="https://goodcompanybooks.com/shop/product/the-book-of-disquiet-1/57979813364093" target="_blank">Translated by Richard Zenith&nbsp;</a>

<a href="https://goodcompanybooks.com/shop/product/the-book-of-disquiet/41554305384534" target="_blank">Translated by Margaret Jull Costa&nbsp;</a>

About the Book: Fernando Pessoa's&nbsp;The Book of Disquiet&nbsp;is a modernist masterwork that has now taken on a similar iconic status to&nbsp;Ulysses,&nbsp;The Trial&nbsp;or&nbsp;In Search of Lost Time.

Fernando Pessoa, strictly speaking, doesn't exist,' - so claimed Alvaro de Campos, one of the "heteronyms", fully-realised substitute personalities invented by Fernando Pessoa to spare himself the trouble of living real life. In this extraordinary book, the putative "factless autobiography" of an accountant named Bernardo Soares, Fernando Pessoa explores and dismantles the nature of memory, identity, time and narrative, creating one of the greatest - but also the strangest - modernist texts.

An assembly of sometimes-linked fragments,&nbsp;The Book of Disquiet&nbsp;is a mesmerising, haunting "novel" without parallel in any other culture.&nbsp;

Get Your Copy:&nbsp;You can&nbsp;<a href="https://goodcompanybooks.com/shop/product/the-book-of-disquiet-1/57979813364093" target="_blank">purchase the book on our website&nbsp;</a>and choose in-store pickup or home delivery.

Welcome to the Cookbook Club hosted by Francine Lon at Good Company Bookstore!

Join our Cookbook Club where we create a relaxed, welcoming way to discover new dishes, learn from one another, and celebrate a shared love of cooking and books!

Each month, we gather to explore a new cookbook together. Once the book is chosen, every participant selects a recipe that catches their interest and prepares it at home. You’re encouraged to make the recipe by yourself!

Feel free to add your personal touches, substitutions, or creative twists.

When we meet, everyone brings their dish to share, creating a table full of diverse interpretations from the same cookbook. Our gatherings take place at Good Company Bookstore, where we enjoy the food, exchange ideas, and talk about what worked (or didn’t!) in each recipe.
