Methodology. the qualitative method with an ethnographic approach and instrumental design case are drawn upon. Results. The research studies the daily interactions of young people to understand their group dynamics and identify their artistic expressions as collective actions in which alternative ways of production of a democratic political culture are recognized. Conclusion. By considering the relationship between politics and youth, it is evident how cultural centers have become scenarios of political rebuilding for a sector of vulnerable young people.
