We are culture and we are nature
This Area of Aeolia, Higher Center of Dramatic Art in col·laboració amb la Miranda Foundation, and with him Cultural project Eolia R & D, connects creativity and nature, in contexts where the resources of the environment can nourish us on a personal and artistic level.
Creativity and Nature are for us, the two areas that preserve the human soul, and factors of health and balance, especially for children and adolescents. Going back to nature is going back to the origin, to what reminds us of who we are and where we come from, and that can help us focus.
The importance of the context is decisive in the personal processes, that is why we act in inspiring environments that invite us to take care of ourselves, and that they are in themselves a value of the activities.
We offer solidarity activities, to connect with the personal space that makes us grow and unfold our creative potential.
La Miranda Foundation was born in 2008 with the desire to rescue and recover horses that live in difficult situations, from abuse, isolation or abandonment, and to offer them a dignified life. They facilitate their life in herds and in freedom, in large natural spaces. They accompany them in the process of becoming free, healthy and safe beings again, of recovering their balance and physical, emotional and mental health, in contact with the natural environment and with the group of horses.
They receive our support and watchful eye, and when necessary, a supplement of fodder and veterinary care to ensure the quality of the adaptation process. About 70 horses and ponies, 6 donkeys and 1 mule currently live at the Foundation.

Video of the Miranda Foundation horses
Video recorded during the first two weeks of the month of March of 2010. The horses were only three months in the Pla de l'Orri.You will be able to see a small tracking of the arrival of two horses to the Foundation: The Sherwood (white horse) that arrives in the morning and the Bonjour (brown horse) that arrives the same day but at dusk. You can see how circumstances make them join and make friends during the first few days. After all, each one will end up in a different subgroup of horses.In the last part of the video you can see a few pictures of the social work of the Foundation from previous years.
Territory of the Miranda Foundation
Plan de l'Orri
The Miranda Foundation has its summer headquarters in Alt Berguedà, in the Serra de Catllaràs, in a Protected Area of Natural Interest of the Natura 2000 Network that the Foundation turned into a wildlife refuge, with a conservation project premature forest, of the gallfer and of the calcareous moles.
El Pla de l'Orri is a farm of 103 hectares with a privileged pasture in the middle of forests of beech, black pine, red pine, boxwood and hawthorn, with a view of the Pyrenees and Montserrat. It consists of the mother farm, a smaller farm called Cortal de l'Orri and a rural classroom where we do the activities with people. It is the origin of the Project, the paradise and happiness of the horses.
Garraf
The winter headquarters is at El Garraf, where we graze more than 1.000 hectares of the Parc del Garraf and the properties of Can Ràfols dels Caus, Josep Camps and Xavier Ribes.
These spaces mostly correspond to the municipality of Olivella. A vast territory of Mediterranean steppe and forest where the horses do good cleaning and fire prevention while also being nourished near the sea. The Garraf is the expansion.
Arseguel
The headquarters of Cadí is the territory we have opened up to municipalities such as Arsèguel in Alt Urgell where we develop a project to recover pastures and memory of the rural world, with the support of horses as agents of biodiversity and fire prevention.
