Novas's central philosophy is to provide a creative, dynamic and innovative environment that bonds peoples of different cultures and experiences to explore and develop their personal life reflections in an artistic manner.

Which is all very nice, really. Non-profit and providing courses for those in the arts (ranging from fashion to sculpture and on), the centre is wonderfully saintly. Exhibitions are sometimes brilliant, very well curated shows of contemporary and 20th century art, and at other times, well, we recommend you check the listings. An interesting and important community centre.
