TERRAMARA, THE PARTY FOR THE PARK’S TWENTY YEARS KICKS OFF

The celebration of the twentieth birthday is concentrated on the long weekend of April 25th. Precisely on that day, the two rebuilt houses are renewed with a sound journey that enriches the visit with a sensorial experience. “What noise does a terramara make?” Visitors will discover this by entering homes and listening to the noises produced by the activities of their inhabitants and those of the surrounding environment.

THE JARNO IOTTI EXHIBITION ON LIGABUE OPENS IN CORREGGIO
An artist, or rather two. One behind the eye of the camera, the other immortalized by the lens in the fleetingness of the moment. This is how it was born All Areas – Luciano Ligabue, a photographic journey in 70 shots plus one, through which Jarno Iotti, a passionate and visionary photographer, recounts the Liga in the twenty years or more spent together “on and off a stage”. The inauguration is Sunday 28 April at Palazzo Principi in Correggio, the city that gave birth to both artists, where it will remain until 26 May.
