Crocheted Umbrellas Brighten the Historic Centre of San Pietro al

Crocheted umbrellas in the historic centre of San Pietro al Tanagro

An open-air art project fills the town with colour: decorated umbrellas and hand-made mandalas crafted by the women of the L'Arte nelle Mani association turn the streets into a visual trail.

The suspended umbrellas create a scenic route that leads visitors through squares and alleys, promoting local heritage through textile craftsmanship and participatory art.
