Wednesday 1 July sees the start of the cycle of cultural events Borgo è Bellezza, a series of interactive meetings, enriched by musical performances and readings, held in six different districts, with the aim of valorising the historical and artistic beauty of the municipal territory.
“The idea – explains the mayor Andreuccetti – sprang from the intention to bring together different perspectives, skills and knowledge from the local community in a dynamic way, through the development of arguments and different themes linked by a common thread: the valorisation of the territory”.
The proceeds from the events will go towards the restoration of the Statue of Pio VII in Loc. Venezia in Borgo a Mozzano.
