"A weekend in Reggio Emilia: discovering art, design and photography exhibitions"
Reggio Emilia - tourist experience
Date
An exhibition season that offers the opportunity to enjoy a weekend in Reggio Emilia dedicated to culture, set amidst the cinematic atmospheres of Crewdson’s photography, the connections between art, science, and spirituality that sparked the great revolutions of the early 20th century, and the creative design of Santachiara, an internationally acclaimed artist originally from our region.
This fully customizable stay package invites you to turn these three artistic explorations into a true cultural getaway in the heart of Reggio Emilia. An experience to be enjoyed on foot among the nearby and picturesque exhibition venues in the historic center.
