Pedreira Paulo Leminski, Arts centre in Curitiba, Brazil.
Pedreira Paulo Leminski is an arts center built in a former quarry with 30-meter-high rock walls surrounding a large performance stage. The venue uses the natural stone formation as seating and acoustic structure for events.
The site originated in 1990 from converting a municipal stone quarry into a cultural venue. A renovation in 2014 updated the infrastructure and transformed it into a modern performance space.
The venue hosts music, dance, and theater performances by local and international artists. Visitors experience how Brazilian cultural expression integrates with the natural landscape surrounding the stage.
The site is accessible, though public transportation is recommended since parking becomes limited during large events. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and expect uneven terrain.
A waterfall integrated into the rock walls contributes to the site's special acoustic qualities. This blend of natural elements and performance space creates an uncommon concert experience.
