Memories Workshop
October 7, 2024 - May 8, 2025
FreeCycle of monthly sessions, built on the basis of an interactive dynamic between listener (reader) and reading mediator, taking as a starting point their literary memories.
Starts from each listener’s earliest literary memories, drawn from oral and popular literature (legends, poetry and song lyrics) and canonical literature (favourite authors) to then focus on the present time and build happy memories, through contemporary poetry and humorous prose. Then comes the future and they create positive memories, through the reading of texts by great public figures (writers, but also actors, musicians, etc.)
