Ispirare
A series of Italian Stories 15 October – 26 November 2024
In recent years we have been overwhelmed by news of wars, epidemics and tragedies, which have done nothing but fuel our anxiety and fear of the future. This is why it is important to remember and tell inspiring stories that remind us of men and women who overcame adversity and obstacles through the strength of their dreams. This is the aim of Inspire, a series of Italian Stories, three events to tell the story of three people who pushed our ability to dream a little further.
In collaboration with Lorenzo Baravalle
