The Exhibition Made OF Sicily
Young artists, who will see their works exhibited during the event, have been invited after a contest attended by 116 artists presenting their projects on the theme of Sicilian excellence. The goal of “Made OF Sicily” is, in fact, to emphasize the Sicilianity: the tradition, the culture, the beauty of the area, good food, ethical values, the great historical personalities and everything that’s beloved and known of our land.
The works of the artists will be on sale and 30% of the proceeds will go to in favor of AIL – Italian Association against Leukemia, Lymphoma and Myeloma – Palermo Section.
