A group of architects present us the campaign "Marry Madrid", around the municipal elections. Marry Madrid is a meeting point, a tool that allows citizens to exercise a commitment to the city where they live.

CÁSATE CON MADRID is a meeting point, a tool that allows citizens to exercise a commitment to the city where they live.

At a time when municipal policies enter into its most important debate with the upcoming elections in May, the YOTAMBIÉNMECASO platform creates a space for reflection and participation in the city, in which its inhabitants are the protagonists. The installation of a large map of Madrid in Efímeras and the web will be the elements to create a great record and dissemination of our commitments.

Where are they?

Go to the Arquerías de Nuevos Ministerios Room. Until May 29 at the exhibition Efímeras.
