Subdivided into two parts, this article reports the experiences of two projects – one developed by Ação Educativa and the other developed by Centro de Estudos e Pesquisas em Educação, Cultura e Ação Comunitária (Cenpec) –  that have in common the purpose of providing to children and youth taking socio-educational correctional measures at Fundação CASA, in São Paulo, the contact with artistic-cultural manifestations, as well as their production. Aiming at reaching such goal, Ação Educativa formulated and carried out Project “Arte na Casa: Oficinas Culturais”, proposing the realization of art workshops. More than a project for access to culture, the initiative is guided by the production of individual and collective subjectivities through the re-signification of the social contexts and culture produced in the  periphery of the metropolitan region of São Paulo, a context which most adolescents served in Fundação CASA come from. The second part of the report brings reflections on the project "Educação com Arte", implemented by Cenpec. In this project, the art product is not understood as a tool, by something that has value in itself, permitting the construction of a cultural repertoire that provides new ways of seen reality and acting upon it, transforming it.
