Artisti di strada, musica, arte e cultura. Il 6 luglio prossimo torna Notte d’Arte, il fitto cartellone di appuntamenti che animerà chiese, musei, piazze ed altri spazi pubblici di Sorrento. Oltre 30 eventi, dislocati in 20 location, per un’iniziativa promossa dall’assessorato al Marketing Territoriale del Comune di Sorrento, in collaborazione con la Fondazione Sorrento, il Museo Correale di Terranova e numerose associazioni culturali del territorio. L’indomani, 7 luglio, sarà la volta di Mod’Arte, il vernissage di moda e spettacolo, organizzato da Gar Eventi di Gianna Azzaro in collaborazione con il Museo Correale, che vedrà sfilare l’haute couture presentata da Patrizia Pellegrino e Matilde Brandi per un’iniziativa il cui ricavato contribuirà al restauro delle opere del Museo Correale. Le due manifestazioni sono state presentate questa mattina, nel corso di una conferenza stampa ospitata nelle sale del Museo Correale di Terranova.
"Notte d'Arte is a moment to discover or rediscover the many places in our city, which know how to enchant tourists and visitors, and offer a great opportunity for quality entertainment, worthy of an international city like Sorrento - said Councilor Massimo Coppola - After the success achieved last year, we have decided to propose the event again. Citizens and guests will be able to enjoy a very rich program of events that ranges between the most disparate genres, from circus art to photography, from gastronomy to classical music and jazz concerts, hosted in places that are symbols of the artistic and cultural heritage of Sorrento, such as the Cloister of San Francesco, the Correale Museum or Villa Fiorentino, which will remain open until late at night. It is a project in which we believe, aimed at catalyzing the attention of new segments of tourism, increasingly important for the local economy".
“As Fondazione Sorrento we have always focused on great art to offer residents and tourists the opportunity to admire the works of twentieth-century masters – underlines the CEO of Fondazione Sorrento, Gaetano Milano – For this reason we immediately made ourselves available to participate in this second edition of Notte d'Arte during which Villa Fiorentino will remain open until 2:00 to allow you to visit the exhibition dedicated to Henri Matisse, one of the main Italian cultural events of the year. For music lovers, instead, in the park of the Villa we will host the first evening of the Lemon Jazz Festival 2019 with the concert of the duo Tuck & Patty. This second event is free admission”.
Also for music lovers, there are classical concerts scheduled at the churches of Santa Maria della Pietà, San Paolo, Sant'Antonino, Santissimo Rosario and dell'Addolorata, jazz in the municipal villa, and Neapolitan classical at the Correale Museum in Terranova (info 0818781846). Here, until 2:00 am, it will also be possible to access the rooms for free, to admire the three floors full of history, from archaeological finds to painters of the Posillipo School. "The Correale Museum will take part in the long white night of the "Notte d'Arte" event with its precious artistic heritage, as an opportunity to participate in a cultural evening dedicated to art and beauty, in order to discover and appreciate even more the richness of its collections - says the director of the Correale Museum Filippo Merola - It is without a doubt one of the most important cultural events with the aim of enhancing art and culture".
