A N I M U S I C is located in the village of São Vicente da Beira, within the municipality and district of Castelo Branco. This village, integrated into the Beira Baixa region, is characterized by its serene landscape, dotted with olive groves and the gently undulating elevations that surround the urban cluster.

Its position allows visitors to enjoy the rural authenticity and the particular quietude of the Beira environment.
A N I M U S I C is a space dedicated to the convergence of two art forms: animation and music. The very name of the place reflects its proposal to explore the symbiosis between visual movement and soundscapes, from their origins to the most contemporary artistic expressions.
The exhibition path invites the exploration of the history, techniques, and creators who have shaped this relationship. Visitors can observe how music lends dynamism and emotion to animation, and how animation, in turn, visualizes and amplifies the musical experience, through a collection that seeks to illustrate this continuous dialogue between both artistic languages.
The building that houses A N I M U S I C integrates into its surroundings, revealing an approach that could be either a contemporary reinterpretation of local construction elements or the revitalization of a traditional village structure. Its design aims to provide a functional and aesthetically refined space that respects the region's architectural heritage.
The interior of the space has been conceived to optimize the presentation of the collection, creating environments that facilitate immersion in the addressed themes. The selection of materials and the layout of the spaces contribute to an atmosphere conducive to discovery, where culture and art are presented in an accessible way for all interested parties.
A N I M U S I C plays a role in the cultural dynamism of the region, offering a perspective on the art of animation and music. The venue functions as a point of valorization and exploration, providing a platform for the recognition of these forms of artistic expression and the analysis of their interconnections.
Its existence in São Vicente da Beira contributes to the cultural offerings of Portugal's interior, fostering dialogue between heritage and innovation, and encouraging creativity and artistic education. It is a place for those who seek to understand and appreciate the depth and value of these universal languages.
