The Southern Photometric Local Universe Survey (S-PLUS) aims to map $\approx$
9300 deg$^2$ of the Southern sky using the Javalambre filter system of 12
optical bands, 5 Sloan-like filters and 7 narrow-band filters centered on
several prominent stellar features ([OII], Ca H+K, D4000, H$_{\delta}$, Mgb,
H$_{\alpha}$ and CaT). S-PLUS is carried out with the T80-South, a new robotic
0.826-m telescope located on CTIO, equipped with a wide FoV camera (2 deg$^2$).
In this poster we introduce project #59 of the S-PLUS collaboration aimed at
studying the Fornax galaxy cluster covering an sky area of $\approx$ 11
$\times$ 7 deg$^2$, and with homogeneous photometry in the 12 optical bands of
S-PLUS (Coordinator: A. Smith Castelli).
