Events

Horti Aperti returns on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 September. The theme of the fifth edition of the City Green Festival will be ‘Art and Craft. The intelligent garden, designed with passion and tended with care’. Alongside the exhibition and market dedicated to sustainable gardening, there will be a packed programme of talks, discussions, workshops and hands-on sessions. The cultural programme will complement the selection of the finest Italian nursery growers and producers, creating an immersive experience.

The open-air concert by the Almo Collegio Borromeo orchestra will also return, as will guided tours of the Collegio and Horti, exploring their history and art, with a focus on the gardens themselves. Our collaboration with the Feltrinelli Foundation will also continue: on Sunday 20th, we will host the second edition of L’isolachenonc’è, a day of readings, workshops and performances for children.

As part of Horti Aperti, we will also be renewing our partnership with the Fondazione Feltrinelli: on Sunday 20 September, we will be hosting the second edition of L’isolachenonc’è, a fun and cultural programme dedicated to young children (aged 0 to 12) and families.

From 10:30 am, we will be hosting fairy tales, workshops, readings and a show, which will bring many stories to life, inspiring new ways of doing familiar things and imagining completely new ones.

Admission is free, subject to registration.
