On September 4-5 and 11-12, 2010 Santa Teresa will be bustling with visitors hosting it’s 19th “Arte de Portas Abertas (Arts With Open Doors) from 10:00am – 6:00pm (some exhibits may end past 6pm).
Santa Teresa is a district with a personality of its own. You will find this cozy neighborhood starting with its narrow streets, that runs along old homes and see the local artists at work.
You can get to Santa Teresa by taxi, or by taking the famous tram / trolley called “bondinho” which runs from downtown Rio and runs above the Arcos da Lapa, an old aqueduct in Santa Teresa. It leaves from Largo da Carioca (at Rua Professor Lélio Gama). This aqueduct with 42 arches covering 270 meters at an altitude of 17,60 meters carried water from the Carioca river to the fountains at Largo da Carioca in 1723. These arches now gives this area a very recognizable landmark.
There will be 77 artists, 44 studios, and 19 exhibit halls. Dont’ forget to stop and eat. The local restaurants will be open all night long. Most of the exhibits are free of charge. This year artists from Argentina and Mexico will be exhibiting their work. The name of this combined efforts is Rosa-Rio-Freak which totals 90 artists from both countries, will be held at the Centro Cultural Laurinda Santos (Laurinda Santos Cultural Center).
Walk to Rua Manual Carneiro to see the famous “Escaderia Selaron”, which is also a very romantic corner of this area. You might just meet the artist Selaron himself working on the tiles’ stairs. A very distinguishable and interesting gentleman.

Another first time exhibit is the Solar Real. The exhibit will consists of photographic works by Brazilian photographers Renan Cepeda, Nana Moraes, Vicente de Mello and Marcos Bonisson. The Solar is a mansion surrounded by gardens and a forest, built in the early 1840’s. The view alone of the whole of Baía da Guanabara Bay will take your breath away.
The closing of the exhibit on September 5 will be celebrated by Brazilian musicians MPB and Semente da Música Brasileira. Free entrace. Great for all ages.
