Celebrations for the Eighth Centenary of the death of Saint Francis: Conversations through words and images curated by Roberto Valandro
Eight centuries after the death of Saint Francis of Assisi, his figure continues to evoke interest, devotion, and curiosity.
Also, Monselice participates in the celebrations of this important anniversary with a program of initiatives that invites citizens, students, and history enthusiasts to rediscover an ancient and profound bond: that between the city and the Franciscan presence.
Third appointment of "Conversations through words and images" curated by Roberto Valandro (author of the essay “The Franciscans and Monselice. The Days and the Works”). A captivating series of four meetings that introduces the historical and artistic exhibition 'The Nativity Scene by Alberto Roveroni and the Monselician Iconography', available for visit at the San Paolo Museum from September 26 to November 8.
At the Loggetta Hall, on Via del Santuario, on Wednesdays, April 8, 15, 22, and 29, at 16:00.
The meetings are open to all citizens, but particularly aim at the school world. Teachers and students will indeed be involved in a prize competition related to the exhibition, an opportunity to transform historical memory into a living and participatory experience.
Free admission.
